alone in a new age

here's my computer.
majestic, isn't she?
and my stereo,
look at the speakers,
they really blast.
my blinds are electric
venetian. press this
button. see?
(sunlight is nicer
when your venetian
blinds open at
the touch of a button.)
my telephone here is
connected to the internet.
it downloads everything
always. i am
so connected.
i own three satellites.
i make my own personal
weather predictions
with them. pretty neat,
i know.

you know what i've
never done, though?
i've never plucked
the peddle of a flower
and smelled it
for its flower fragrance,
as they call it.
i'd love to do that.
