[net.poems] Some poetry by William Flake

anand@utastro.UUCP (Anand Sivaramakrishnan) (06/06/85)

The space twixt screen and face
A private place for you and it
A current of nascent thoughts
Shoots between to rows of dots.

Seeming vital to you alone
Constructs rise in complexity
Accounting for all you know
Programs birth and eat and grow.

As the visions start to gel
New ideas come thick and fast
Fortune, fame and reknown!
Suddenly the system's down.

              William Flake.
