Publish or Perish

Publish or Perish

You click and touch

And read as much

A cellphone can store more pages

Than a book that may last for ages

• books can be put up in Cloud

can have a soundtrack t read aloud

But I hold it in doubt

What if the Grid break down

What if the Internet fritz out

In the case that I too will be perished

Better to get my poetry materialized

In black and white on paper published

I’d not  wish wild to be immortalized

Unless it is remembered by heart

Unless it is  an immortalized art

How many angels on a pinpoint tiptoe

Heart and art, if poetry could amount to
