TELEPORT TO MOUNTAINS
wanted to teleport to the big noisy city
hear the poet from the top of the world
drink wine hob nob with the literati
dig the art scene
but a tragic obstacle
a fireball from hades
that stole a life brought
the collective consciousness
to a snarling standstill
so we stopped at
the nearest blue screen
teleported to the
planet of our virtual selves
pandora’s box full of
greed violence
trust beauty love
and dug the
floating mountains
instead
