Ode Cursive Waves

Handwriting is old lore for the “Common Core”
this dam

an automated signature to advance a new pattern of life
old cursive’s sign is up against the standard call, one type fits all
fingertips typing out the text
it’s ez to read, it’s fast, it’s quick let’s just hope the textures
of your mind, released from ether, the or, of your veins is as rich
oh, creative ways fewer waves in the new grain to gain the...

“Common Core”

for
the analytical, parts subjected to, digital tapping out computer based skills

won’t be read, it’s dead hieroglyphics our type yelps in or...bits
to the alpha satellite

Your bit hand writ
unread, unheard a cursive hymn blown in an amplified wind
seeding another lost communication gone the way of mailman
the mermaid the yeti
he’s and she’s .................... not seen
or
just that bit we can’t read, their sig...natures
