The InterGossip has Winked Out, and Now Life Has No Meaning

 

The InterGossip is out, and so I quest

Among little plastic boxes that light up

As a coded series of spiky blue lamps

That might be signaling to other worlds

 

Cutting the power in turn to all the parts

Poking the innards with a paper clip

Like an archaeologist digging for truth

For the Ark of the Contract, or for the Grail

 

The InterGossip is found, and so I rest

In electric repose in this fallen screen
