An Experiment in Navigation
Mixed media thought engines,
instruments of communication and comprehension,
lost in the anonymous noisy jumble of landfill.
A chain reaction of references and suggestions
losing its wish to be useful;
an elementary lack of balance and impulse control.
The echo of the original becomes ever fainter:
weird skanks, cosmic abstractions and fake folk pieces,
fiery snakes, red skies and golden beings.
I have no idea how to decipher this map.
