KINGFISHER CAMPBELL
The Rectangle, People
On
a round planet
With
jagged edges
And
irregular bodies
Of
clouds and water
Beings
with oval heads
And
four sticks emanating
Evolve
to build houses
Tables,
chairs, beds, pools
Vehicles
sporting wheels
Bats,
balls, tennis rackets
Radios,
record players, televisions,
Microwave
ovens, computers
(utilizing
dials, knobs, buttons, keys)
And
now personal L7’s
To
hold onto and look into
To
fill lumpy, bulbous minds
Concentrate
almond eyes
On
numbers, letters,
Pictures,
music,
Video,
games featuring
Recorded
voices and faces
Reminding
us we are
Creations
recreating
Recharging
our selfies
Until
inevitable recycling
