not really sure what i'm doing at the moment

to start off, write what you mean with out any frills.
it's okay if it's prose. try and make it original. use everyday language
then pick out the relevant parts of it

internet technology
changed interaction
altered ambition
the new poetry
a new art form
free speech is a bonus

then try and work it into a poem with some connective tissue. (just a suggestion)

lol.

well i was thinking about the way that the internet is a technology / commodity that has completely changed our (/ my) style of interaction - even the scope of human ambition.
and suggesting that's more authentically the role of poetry and art, even science - which definitely consists of wanting to know stuff for it's own sake, which is maybe opposed to wikipedia etc.

i dunno if i got the balance right, the end line seems overly serious, but it's kinda serious topic.


obviously (?) the thing about getting your phone calls free, was an attempt to include an absurd element to it. there's a couple of other things i can say in self critique - e.g. "play" carries the connotations i want, of frivolity as well as literature / acting.
