Democracy Poem by anais vionet

Democracy

Rating: 4.0


The smart, modern boys
who'll shepherd satellites
and parent sly AI -

live blocks away and
spend sunny afternoons with
digital zombies.

I talked with one - once,
I think, he mumbled some
strange techno-English.

He was pale and
skittish but attractive
In a shy, goth way.

"Who are you voting
for? " he stared blankly, "for prom
court? ? " he stared blankly.

"Madison's nice, I
say", handing him a ballot,
*He checks her name* "Thanks! "
