Ice Cream
Everyone writes poems about emotions and fears
And one day I said, "I want to write a poem about
Ice cream."
About Dilly Bars on the drive from Tucson to Phoenix
The Dairy Queen across the highway from the ostrich farm
With the dust devil's raging by
About soft serve cones at the Desert Museum
Always Twist. Never Vanilla.
On all those hot Saturday afternoons
Watching mountain goats sleep in the shade
A poem about Friday nights after pizza
A different flavor every time
And eating straight from the carton at Dad's
While netflix plays on the wii
And sitting on the rooftop watching the stars
Ice cream bar in hand
About the store by Big Lake

Mind Picturing
The eyes are the mind's camera
The pictures I take of you are stored only in my mind
However, sometimes I wish I could print them
So you could see yourself
the way I see you

we've clicked the help button
on the tool bar.
we're the first to admit we're confused.
this morning the council met with a proposal
to replace god.
there have been complaints.
"dear eternity, i'm disillusioned
your god is a single snapshot of deep space
and a soundtrack of silence.
i tried pressing reset.
my old model featured google images,
a personal blog, and a comment section.
yesterday's god had to be recharged.
it was a rough way to be hardwired,
but there was a five-year money-back guarantee
and excuse me, but i'm dissatisfied.
i'm not so sure about redemption,
and i saw it on the news yesterday:
they recalled the golden rule.

youtu.be/Glcg95L4JK4this was back in 1915 in WWI. They played this during the trench wars.
It would loop for days, weeks, months.
So I decided to modernize it. This is byfar the hardest poem I've ever written. Enjoy...

It seems this is so true, right? I can only wonder about people younger then I am that are completely obsessed with the internet, and never even think about doing things elsewhere. I can get sucked into it once in a while, and spend the better part of a day browsing....but in my case, some of that also comes from never having money to really go do anything else. I some times ride my bike into the city proper, or to a shopping are where I live, and just window shop, but even then, I'm faced with the fact that if I go out for more then a few hours, I will have to spend money on eating out. But even then, once I've caught up on what I consider to be business online, I can get bored with it. That is usually when I go on cleaning sprees. (Can't afford to go out *sigh*, internet has nothing interesting *sigh*I've already read all of these books.....cleaning time!)
Some how though, I've never fully gotten into the idea of being completely surrounded by the internet all of the time. When I leave my apartment, I do bring my phone, but usually it's a book on my phone I am reading, not the internet. I don't really have too many sites I am interested in visiting on my phone. I do however enjoy having a mobile google in my pocket for the cases where I need to look something up, or have a random blast of inquisitiveness on a topic.
And I still get excited by the prospect of going out with friends or....spending a three days, with out the internet at all, out in the woods at an old military fort, using my imagination with other people to make up fantasy stories! Whoo!
