We live lives through redraw eyes
lines-of-type lives
screen strain lives
networks and email–
silences broken by pipelines
existing in electricity only.

This is my online journal. More than that though, it’s also my space (and inspiration) to talk about the way that, for me, technology is more than a life-defining phenomenon. All forms of technology, but especially computer technologies, are for me a form of poetry. Of course, saying something is a life-defining phenomenon is nothing to take lightly. For the past several decades, an amazing percentage of the American populous (and a smaller percentage of the world populous) has been technology dependent. Enough for now.
