Where We Are Today

I have a secret to share with you today, one 

which may knock your socks off. In light of

openness and transparency, I feel compelled

to to tell you the truth.

In 1947, I was born into a substantive reality,

far flung from what may be perceived as modern

times today. I have since been molded and

fashioned, you see, into what is now a techie
facsimile of the creature I used to be.

Call me an aged and refurbished product of
antiquity, call me a relic of history if you please.

I have been transformed over time into a pix-

elated version of the flesh and blood human

being formerly known as me.

I have become but a game to be played in cyber

space on any electronic device with which you

prefer to engage. And surprise! Here’s the news,

my digitized friends, so too have you.

What we have come to be, the best and worst

of us in terms of broad-band connectivity, 

are being played at the speed of light on the

World-wide Web of Virtual Reality.
