Anneka,
you’re learning love
from a machine.
Secret QWERTY flirting
beyond bedtime warnings.
My daughter’s
an animal on the screen.
All made up, ready
to take on the pain
and the beauty.
You use the tool,
the tool uses you.
You use the tool and
the tool uses you, too.
The Oracle
is fishing ants
with a reed.
Remember the days:
Dumb need
thumping the gate
to replicate?
Anneka,
you’ve powered up
with this machine.
Rare black collar
drawn along on
a hidden lead,
digitally.
Ma Mama Ma Ma Ma
Mama
Ma Mama Ma Ma Ma
Mama
In equal measure and
equal parts,
equal nerves.
SQL parsing
equal blood
through equal hearts.
You use the tool,
the tool uses you.
You use the tool,
the tool uses you.
You lose the tune,
the tune loses you.
You use the tool,
the tool uses you –
Mama Ma Ma Ma
Mama
Ma Mama Ma Ma Ma
Mama
