Insoluble by Karen MichelleI am drawn,
heart pumping
(fluttering),
by the sound
of incoming
impulses:
radiowaves and
information;
another technological
breakthrough;
letters pressed together,
locked away
inside more machinery;
brain overload
as i strive to
overcome and shelter
all at the same time -
debasing these thoughts
with a dream
to escape the city.
Run away to
another place,
settle into
musical heaven
light years away
from the life
I lead.
It's resting
right now
in the palm of
my hand, and if
I leapt I could
make it - if only
I was prepared to
break

break'Yes, if one is prepared enough to UNDO this happening. Nice philosophical approach.
