big brother eyes
the new vista
as the gates open up,
what do we see
you and me
a new reality
where can I hide?
oh, but I do love my PC
the electricity that feeds it
scares me sometimes
but the eyes of the future watching me
constantly
knowing where I am at every moment
and what if all I am really doing
is using the powder room?
and oh, they haveta know what brand of powder
be sure of that,
that they will have the lenses tweeked
for 3D

can't you see where this is going?

and on another note the powers that be
microsoftly falling before your eyes
had done a wonderful thing
creating a new PATH to the future
with rotarooters that dig out a virus

talk about mercky waters!

and if you followed the news today
you may read this and
say

je comprends
c'est magnifique et aussi terrible
and rusty French-speaking maidens should probably
keep a tight grip on their feather dusters,
keep their night jobs
'cuz they can't sing

and Intussusseption rules the day anyway

There will be cameras on every corner within 10 years and satelittes where there are no streets. As for now, just assume all forms of communication beyond personal contact are potentially being monitored. It starts here in the U. S. because we are the most independent.

Thanks for spending a minute or two on this, which my muse insisted I write.
Richard, how nice to have a visit from your mind.
Yes, it bothers me that so many people accept that all this video camera and 24/7 monitoring is positive, and don't seem to object to being participants in some under-the-microscope game.
I wish to remain anonymous and invisible most of the time, to protect my personal space and sanity.
