Open Up and Say Ahhh, Friday Poets and Digital Art
Open Up and Say Ahhh

analogs disengage, evacuate
flutter away to the unseen
glitchy, imagined code joints
within the web of existence
okay, I will say it
although it has been
said enough
they fly away
come to nest
within the matrix
spiders don’t fly
they don’t need to
that cocoon
another has spun
it’s your final dissolution
no papillon metamorphosis
planned-out and neatly-packaged
she was dressed in silk
when they laid her to rest
how nice, how elegant
rich and utterly delicious
spiritual egotism
or rampant materialism
venom or decay
hemlock or scurvy
nightshade or rickets
yes, I want, I want …
no, how dare you take so much
keep your red pills
and blue ones too
I’m on a no placebo diet
they give me nightmares
and day terrors, flatulence
itches and chills
things gotten a little dark ...
then I will end on a positive note
open up and say ahhh

I really liked the poetry, especially in the end it was very good 👍
Thank you, Rosa:)
What a great poem Pryde...
“She was dressed in silk”... nice 👏
Thank you, Moon:)
Strike! But I sense that your rich poetry is headed towards philosophy. Criticizes the exacerbated materialism, living to pretend. I felt something like: "although she dresses in silk, mona stays", the paradox of the person who lives of appearances weaves a spider's web that in the end always breaks its seams and reveals what is inside in the dark.
I go through the threads and say: Ahhh ...!
¡Excellent, Pryde!
Thank you, Zeleira:)
Some of The Matrix is left in the far reaches of my memory.
I want to say many things, but I'll summarize them into one: Who said we have to choose between the blue and red pills and swallow?
Yes, ma'am!
Brave write, @prydefoltz! It shouts determination.
