Apps and ads are comingled
ruthlessly intertwined with
their shameless marketing managers
Eloping with Wall Street
because every whore knows
that anything is for sale
Yet who names the price?
Analog man stumbles
through this landscape surreal
Battling against odds improbable
and chafing at the idiocy
of self driving cars and amateur dentistry
All those things you’ll remember
that someone once said
It seemed like a good idea at the time
Those famous last words
of some character actor
whose name you can’t remember
Lost in the credits of films
equally forgotten
