sun through the umbrella shines
matted pages absorb the light,
black ink scribbles until empty
a sky-blue replacement suffices,
words on the page quickly appear
marked out and replaced before
attempts at editing occur...
readers read not the original but
one with modifications galore
oftentimes changing the meaning
of what was written before.
no claims to fame are there given
nor quick solutions for changing themes,
when smithing of the phrase occurs.
thought retrievals replaced by searches
more efficient engines they assure
robing us of our humanity onto
which we have desperately tried to hold.
sometimes, on this porch I sit when
weather is nice and warm, protected
by this red umbrella when too much
sun finally appears... oftentimes, my
thoughts I see, many of which, fall
through the decking cracks but some
survive the test of time... remaining
on the booklet pages when it closes.
