Father Washing-Machine, Mother Microwave & Brother Radio Poem by James Merchant

Father Washing-Machine, Mother Microwave & Brother Radio



Robots feed me lice
Shaped like specks of rice
I can't refuse
And I can't choose

What I want to wear
The style of my hair
The size of my shoes
The year of my booze

Robots feed me info
Got the connections free-flow
Internet brides for my body
And a leader as my hobby

The truth coming from my brother
Goes throuh my bones like butter
A final offering of certification
The end the circuit of circulation

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
