Prototype

Today we are a prototype –

an unexampled species –

beyond the reach of ease,

efficiency or efficacious use –

a loose brigade of presence

and of shape: designed

for gaping at. We rather

like the blatant fact of us:

this fuss, this thing we are.

Like bright light captured

in a jar, shaken up to make
a jam. We am we am we am.
