The House on Poe Street (Detroit City 666)
A Detroit Poem Dedicated to the Late Edgar Allen Poe and The Motor City Play
Algorithm tree branches bear fruit
Eat from the Apple
First memory for iOS (“us”)
So capitalism twisted like
Cap on the Snapple
Robot, Slav, corporate chattel
Political smear,
minute hate,
we pay to Cheer.
Metaphor Mad Max
Constitution on empty
Monopoly money, year of plenty
Bored game,
fixed rules,
mind control,
emotions numbed
Days numbered due to lineage Augustus,
Rome is burning
Remember,
remember the rain in November
War and peace,
Russian super power collusion,
Political check mate,
thorns in roses
multiply before they divide, exponential law, Moore’s law plateau
Moors with no limits
No gimmicks
Rebuild.
Treaty of Versailles, simply a lie...
Super power collusion
Ethical stalemate
Theatrics, pull the curtain, Plato’s cave can somewhat relate
Shadows we face to unlock our safe
Rewards plenty enter the gate.
