Some pro's and con's of being connected to virtual reality

rew4er2nail

Dune not be bashful, grumpy, leery

or any other contemporary dwarf man

regarding countless less well known dwarves

(that never got a chance

to play a bit part) such as wham

bam
thank you ma'am
linkedin with emergence

of Internet and poetry slam
opportunities availed by Nast tee Uncle Sam,

which characters (albeit fiction),
nevertheless, helped spawn a quiet yet free
global, radically riotous,

totally tubular snow white transformation
affecting a societal and human specie
but also augmented, credited,

engineered, et cetera contributing

to paradigm seismic shift that garnered tree
mend us plentifully birthed schema,

impacted and transformed how wii

(more particularly many gifted minds)

bridged geographical distance
(encompassing all four corners

of the Earth) to enhance

what came to be called the world wide web,
courtesy
Sir Tim Berners-Lee

hewing digital strong armed lance
information super high, "Cyber Revolution,"

etc allowing one to prance

and essentially transcend reality to brook
cyber sea ghosting, fostering, embezzling crook

commanding, commingling, communicating, hook
line and sinker, et cetera courtesy nerdy kook

with an excellent access and outlook
reaching the most distant cranny and nook.

 

This (bit a bing chitty chitty bang bang)

democratization of information,

manifestation toward
exponentially faster processing capacities

(latest technological trend heralds
Quantum computing – promising
to transform the world into
twenty first century space race)
more powerful than pen or sword
(based on principles of Moore’s Law), reward

witnessing atheists to thank good lord

electronically solidifying

binary unification swiftly tail lord

engendering greater dependence and reliance

figuratively shrinking the drinking gourd
allowing far flung aliens, family,

friends, et cetera to ford
great distances via sophisticated electronics

courtesy of super smart motherboard
enabling ever more complex

futuristic electronic contrivances,
the generic Homo Sapien gibbon could afford.


Analogous to Medieval Age

this quiet pussy riot creation
(ushering on thee global stage
equally as controversial when
la cage aux folles aired)

vis a vis Internet did un cage
actual overcoming physical barriers

ushered Hallmark gauge
marked by Computer/Digital Age odyssey),


especially sharing pixelated page

at light speed, where the ordinary individual
could keep in contact )
albeit with every now and again

a bit torrent rage

and in some instances tapping

smarts of a preschooler considered a sage,
which kindergarten lad/lass

commandeered a handsome wage

 

whereat the parental figure

did gently cajole, wheedle or beg

their wealthy progeny promising

son/ daughter of a healthy nest egg

framing almighty dollar

as theatrical masterpiece jpeg

storing money in Swiss

bank accounts or hollow leg

perhaps christened Meg
or if an avid weekly reader

of Moby Dick's Queequeg,

 

who felt incorporeal storied power

of Herman Melville as zen unseen aid
instructing hypothetical rich kid

to drop out of school

before his/her first grade

cuz of all the money he/she made,

which affected modus operandi rendered obsolete
child worker laws

and no sweat of brow getting paid

people used bitcoin (protocol

which implements a highly available,

public, and decentralized ledger)
additionally making purchases
with scant keystrokes to complete a trade.

 

As with any major dramatically novel scheme

light bulb idea scribbled on napkin

or other scrap of paper

via modeling brainstorm viz cutting up cheese
or spraying whipped cream

originating as a flash in the pan

aha eureka moment, or dream

as rough blueprint subsequently

underwent beta testing,
before declaring pc innovation supreme,
whereby outstanding persons

in the tech industry
clamored to join Kidde team.

 

Whether seventh day add vent

hissed or other religious creed
powerful binary processing
rooted and impacted particularly

after tooth house sand
years after common era (re: anno domini)

earth shaking incarnation indeed
and ramifications in all walks

and talks of life sought expert need.

 

Coven chanting children murmured Luddites be damned!


Thus spake Zarathustra

(cue the opening scene
from Planet of the Apes)

upon witnessing as if king or queen
(in reality father or mother)
didst get immediately

dethroned thus, increasing mean
average positive netzero

effects on society, especially lean

microchip i.e. integrated circuitry

miniaturization "green"
technology (and eventual

attendant affordable price),
viz said trappings

upon global market
invited absolute zero dust, a must clean

as a whistle work space,

and manufacturers laboratory be microbe free

hermetically sealed vacuumed "clean.”

 

Countless portable computers

unbeknownst soon invited

florid colorful expletives

upon heads that did wantonly hack

impromptu malfeasance called cyber crime,

especially as majority proportion of population

didst purchase these dime a dozen,

countless electronically sophisticated contrivances
every Tom, Dick and Harry

 

snapped up these smart machines
excitedly keyed away

ofttimes indifferent to gunk
on unwashed hands

plus bits of food particles

eventually caking hardware with grime
subsequently necessitating technician

charging gobs of moolah

sans to unstitch in time.

 

Gooey glop getting suctioned out

vaunted vips venting vitriolic vocalizations

emphasized obvious

NO FOOD OR DRINK rule to abide

cuz suctioning tower computer

or laptop presented vulnerability

plus unforeseen downfall against fried
food and greasy hands ended up hide
ding hardest to reach locale

on circuit board no matter

how expert technician pried
“end user” yelling out gratitude

to geek squad member helping
before he/she went side

dulling out front door


eagerly awaiting
remotely controlled self driving vehicle
transporting self taught techie guru home

to an obscure gated destination,

an uninterrupted distant, yet pleasant ride

eventually amateurs encouraged

to tinker like an apprenticed tailor

akin as raw troubleshooting recruit

oft playfully feigned to be soldier spy
pretending to repair bowel of computer

when in truth visiting

supposed outer limits of functionality

legality, and radicality shadowing dark side

which lined illegal benefits

of labor saving devices.

 

The sound of silence

written on the subway walls

though heretics opposing

latest technology and felt sinister chill
(just ask Punxsutawney Phil),

the Internet ranks as greatest dog sent rill

lee where wiz kids ranked

chatting killer apps with grateful dead

information superhighway as heavenly manna

with artificial intelligence street cred

since introduction of white bread
and powdered milk biscuits

baked by Ahmed.
