New Poem: ‘History’

‘History’

Living life online
constantly searching
and browsing and
yes, having been so long
an Internet Explorer,
I now find myself
occasionally crashing and stalling
pressing back, lamenting
that life isn’t Chrome smooth
or one nice long Safari,
thinking I could make all things well
if I could click back through life
munching cookies
selectively deleting
my history…
