An invisible understanding fills this write and implied in the writing itself that is vague enough to be taken more than one way but obvious enough to understood be each in their own way. Well done

Pregnant with meaning this poem births metaphor after metaphor. I particularly like:

The stone stays where it fell.\"
This too may be taken various ways but if taken literally in terms of technology it fits todays society. Well done
