John Grey
My mp3 player contains
all the jazz and classical
I’ll ever need to hear.
And my tablet boasts
the complete works of Shakespeare,
Tolstoy and Sir Walter Scott.
In my wallet
is an ATM card
which speaks money
in many different languages.
And my credit card
has all of my needs at heart.
My mobile phone
puts me in touch
with anyone
from my sister in Australia
to the president of France.
So sorry my dear.
You’re flesh and blood
and clearly at a disadvantage.
