The
renegade internet tycoon
Is
trying to make a mark
More
substantial
Than
the bits and bytes
His
empire is built on
So
he is carving massive holes
In
a lonely desert mountain
Somewhere
in the wilds of Texas
Getting
ready to build a massive clock
That
will run for 10,000 years
Cool
plan
I
think I saw the same thing
In
“The Dark Crystal”
But
I’m sure
This
will be much cooler
Because
it is real
Or
something like that
All
I can think is
This
is the first step
To
a world
A
little more
Post-apocalyptic
When
we start building permanence
That’s
when the bottom falls out
Like
when I try to write
A
meaningful poem
And
all I do
Is
ramble
About
clocks in the desert
The
end of civilization
And
futuristic fantasies
With
words that might not last
But
an idea that could
Unaffected
by rust
Or
the passing of time
