ANGRY BIRD

I'm an angry bird

Angry at Google

Google Plus was knocked into the tech bin

All the comments on my blog posts were binned

All the interactions, lost.





Every day

I have a few moments

Wondering

Why have I spent my whole career staring at a glass screen?

For what?

Where is the profit?

Where is the life?

What have I got to show for that?


Then I find myself

Lifting the net curtains

Blowing away the grime

Blogging

Writing

Responding to others

Experimenting

Learning from others

Learning.

    Angry
    is
    being
    alive.

    Wondering
    is
    being
    alive.

    Learning
    is
    being
    alive.

    You are a bridge
    to the cool,
    mint breeze
    blowing
    off
    the
    ocean.

    Not abstract
    but tactile
    and alive.

    That is what
    you've got
    to show

    Finger smudges
    obscure the screen;
    you know what I mean
    when I say, I'm glad to find
    your words here, behind
    the dust and disarray,
    weeks later when I returned
    to write on another day
