the end of the Internet 2004


it was the end of the Internet
vast servers and trillions of fiber optic impulses
converged on each other and shattered
monitors across the country blews thei tubes
among the pungent scent of burnt chemical powder
the power grids failed
the sewage systems pumped feces into the drinking water
the cash registers refused to to open
and around the world the savages danced and beat their drums
and moved like snakes from their impovershed realms
to rule
