Alternating Currents

By Gerard DiLeoPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

Hanging seat set in motion

By gravity, in flux

Sinusoidal devotion

In arcuate redux

.

We're beasts riding waves

That oscillate repetitively

Even our brainwaves

Alternate seductively

.

We hear to the beat of a drum

And see with orbits' reflections

Unknowingly sense the pendulum

To balance alternate directions

.

Analog creatures

Who reach for the digital

Own flesh-and-bone features

In lieu of the virtual

.

Simply symbolic

Is the thrust of a swing

With lovers quixotic

Who send what they bring

love poemssurreal poetry
