Hijacked

Today's amazing poem
Hijacked
Courtesy of the new iPhone
(it was really fucking good)
(all my best words, wasted)
(a tragic misunderstanding between owner and device)
(always a tragic misstep for owner)
(device gets clemency)
(world suffers accordingly)
(poetry ceases to exist)
(another game hits the market)
(I sink deeper into obscurity)
(disgust begets anger)
(sick stomach, pangs of failure)
(dramatic realization)
(dramatic interpretation)
(dramatization)
(plague)
(heft)
(wimper)
(realign)
(punish)
(tantrum)
(fester)
(quit)

It's a remarkable day in history when we no longer define ourselves through our technology, but when our technology defines itself through us.
