“Weekly check-in, daily check-in, minutely check-in
momently check-in, on interference placing my
Face, ID, and the weather of dispersed
hearing aides in my purview.
The Spectrum equipment from DSL
to latent energies of the psyched
undulate it baybee, slick the heartbreak jasmine
jiffy, zip thru Kansas nasogastric vast majorities.”
All Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace places the reader into the photocopied individualism of contemporary life. The self is destroyed through the daily evisceration of workplace surveillance and digital correspondence. Immediately after that, the Lyrical I defines poetry, but not before declaring itself untrustworthy.
