On the Threshold of Buying a Hayes Modem

Sheila E. Murphy |

|
I think I am
Too much a battery to be
Sitting still not moving ahead
In any of my domains
I think I am
Exhausted from going slowly
So long
This Nineteenth Century paced
Communication feels
Drunk tongued
Let me tell you
At lightspeed
No, faster
At thoughtspeed
Once we've been together
I will never have to
Bitch about the missing
World peace

The Risk Free Self
|
Sheila E. Murphy |

|
(Disclosure)
Say perfectly
In laboratory conditions
Words out of the test tube
Flawlessly control grouped
Indisputable
Immutable
Have your say
Your way
Persuade
The ones who already agree with you
Tell them bluntly
(They are expecting you)
What is easy to believe
