I want to put my feet up
By the river
The sound
Of the flow
Around me
Summer
Coming to life
The peak of life awakening
Once again

The Random Provides Information
The random provides information
The information provides facts
The facts provide observations
Of how the random reacts

Don’t Believe In Me
Don’t believe in me
Don’t believe in yourself
Believe in the facts
And nothing else
What of faith
That which you can feel
Like the lucky tingle
When the cards start to deal
Who really knows
Certainly not me
All I got
Is what I can measure or see

The Tech Will Not Be Denied
The tech will not be denied
It keeps its own pace and company
You can hear it in the past
The sound von Neumann heard
In the back of his mind
The hum Turing felt
At the base of his spine
The spark the chimp saw
Pounding walnuts between stones
The ones and twos of it
The spiderwebs of it
We stride next to it
Because we are of it
We tell stories
To mask the data
Narratives to help
Ease through our days
Those who face the light of it
Move us forward
To something different
That is still yet us
The tech will not be denied
It moves without consent because it is us
We are its company and its raison d’etre
