what are media?
do they feed our criteria
do they sleep in their electronic stations
do they fulfill our digital infatuations
do they make up their own abbreviations
world wide web is the www
television is the tv
a performance within a performance
extending our senses
amputating our perceptive fences
pervasive, invasive, superabrasive
what are media?
capitalist propaganda
the devil wears prada
selling our sexual drive
media are the dull knives
that anesthetize and organize
our digital dominate lives
cutting into our senses
to numb the criticism
to invite the narcosis
and hypnotize the humanism
leaving us to our devices
those lonely vices
what are media?
mind-fi enhances wi-fi
it retrieves social interaction
and obsolesces normal conversation
dissects daily dialogue
reverses the tribal man:
he is the cosmic man
in the global village
lost in translation
drowned by the vortex
of the digital gods
and the new media lords
weakened and softened by the strength and roughness of the new era.
he is addicted to the galaxy that imposes this new literacy of media.
