TROLL

THAT  ODIOUS  TROLL    TECHNOLOGY

Surely I have said this before:

Everything is broken

My telephone is answered by the FAX

but only when certain people call   Giving new

meaning to:  Ghost in the machine

My techno-devices are sentient beings   And as

much as I try  I can’t help but take their slights    personally

Recently Pope Francis bestowed his blessing on

the Internet:  This is something truly good   A gift

from God    Later he tempered his approval

This week in a Twitter Q&A  Olympic gymnast

Beth Tweedle was asked: On a scale of 1-10 how

pig ugly would you class yourself?   The poser

of this question  enjoyed his infamy  He tweeted:

I was trending for 2 days!!   

Social media may just be the Millennial curse

along with  reality tv  infamy posing as fame

& naming babies North

ANYTHING

ANYTHING  WORTH    HAVING

The door barely shuts   there is no working   lock

Both front & back entrances   This is not a SAFE

house       & if this were not a recurring dream

locksmiths would have been called  years ago

For $378.85 they would provide  a money back

guarantee:  This family can sleep peacefully  in 

lockdown   in the safe sepulchre of  suburban nights

Tomorrow is another day   to combat grief    & peddle

guilt  which now sells for $26.17/100grams   Nothing

comes cheap   Why the price of desire has tripled since

December 2013    And no night is longer than the night on   repeat
