Awe of Technology [Poem]

A camera
freezes 
a split-second
of the continuous flux we call reality. 
What is a picture? 
other than an eternal monument 
to a passing second?

The internet is an invisible college.
Your eyes wander 
aimlessly 
in an endless electric labyrinthine library
of pictures, music, and words. 
Unlimited possibilities 
wait at the tips of your fingers. 
What will you do with them? 
Will you waste the precious hours, 
or will you make new discoveries?
