A TEST DRIVE POEM

Still there are roads without rails and shoulders… Courtesy New China

What happens
When the internet
The connection
Faaaaaaaaaade out
Way down
In a narrow valley
Down the hair needle bended road
Breathtaking view
No connection
From above

Then suddenly
Like poured out of a sack
Bright, brighter
No sight, white…
The white snow
Covers it all
You’re connected
To the elements
What was
Green, red and yellow
And kind of black
Just 5 minutes ago
Was…
Kind of black
In front of you

Did I tell you…
I love skiing…

You’re still
In a self drive car
Connected with the elements
Heading for the next bend
Rock on your left side
Nothing on the other side
Will it stop?
Still no connection
Turn? Park?
Park on the shoulder?
The shoulder that’s not there…
Oh… I see
Backup mode…

Windows?
Just a moment…
We need to reloooooooooooooooooad

Are you sure you want to turn right?
Confirm

Not now…

You might know me, but you don’t. I got wet in the rain, but now always soaked. I thought a lot. High thoughts and also loud and clear.
