I upload myself to the computer to see just how I look <br />Am I a person or am I a book? <br />On the hard drive I look so fine and slick <br />Better get it on the website double quick. <br /> <br />Is it me is it not? <br />Who am I…I forgot. <br /> <br />How many megabytes am I? <br />'Trigabytes! ' I hear my laptop cry. <br /> <br />Now I am in my system folder <br />Buried deep and so much older. <br />Try to find me if you can <br />Ask Jeeves or Google if I’m the man? <br /> <br />I live forever in Cyberspace <br />An epitaph to the human race <br />No longer am I flesh and bone <br />But numbers in the computer zone. <br /> <br />A JPEG here a PDF there <br />I’m FTP’d everywhere. <br /> <br />Upload, download, refresh, save, <br />Join the new computer slaves. <br /> <br />My mobile plugs into my ear <br />Adds to my brain an extra gear. <br /> <br />Now I am an external drive <br />Am I dead or am I alive? <br /> <br />Connected to the Internet <br />It doesn’t matter if I forget, <br />My memory’s out there on the web <br />An eternal Cyberspace celeb.<br /><br />Brian Routh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cyber-me/
