Electric Cabbage



I have wanted nothing else
but to release the machine
from its stall



I have told it
you are better than the others
faster than the others,
they paint with sticks
and they talk like fools



Sure, a lot of it's junk
but there's a thousand sides
to a sheet of digital paper
and the machine is never discouraged



Batting one in a million
to an empty stadium
the machine is still a star

Another terrific complement of words and images. I like how both the poems and the images build together to a nova-like burst of intensity and revelation.

You know, it's funny, I never noticed the explosive sequence to the images until you mentioned it.
