Human Condition

Trapped inside an iPad,

trying to escape;

a character with mental blood

and 3D attitude.

Prisoner of motherboard

in – 2D – battened down:

little App within a lair

empowered by the mains.

Irrational,

suppose I had a thought

of something never seen

and tried to turn it in my hand

and light it with the sun;

but couldn’t see, as if the dark

forbade me to begin.

Away it wriggles like an eel

- what is it that I feel

and how do I begin?
