The Grey Cloud



Being in touch doesn’t necessarily mean sharing 
a PC screen, or being Facebook-shadowed by a 
denim-aspirations vulture in jeans, and as yet th’ 
comparison hasn’t attained a meaning we’d call 
symptomatic - yet one supposes that’s decided 
best in public media articulations of what is viral, 
& I’m not waiting for that eventuality t’ prove my 
case for keeping my face off of the iPad screen 

Yet I like to know what is the current scene with 
hints as t’ which events are hysterical shams, & 
those that’ve yet to wrest the space you expect 
breaking news to claim; but it is a grey cloud of 
vague & disconcerting expressions as t’ what it 
is that we’re out there seeking in the first place
