Parsed

I'm paying you to probe me,
so you're surfing ATS.
I've seen it in the parser,
and that's fair enough, I guess.

I'll try to keep you entertained,
for playing on my dime.
This world's deranged, but what a place
I come here all the time.

A Reader's Digest avid fan,
I miss those afternoons.
I quench my short attention span,
on threads about the moon.

I really do feel safer,
I appreciate your time,
or was it, wait, oh never-mind
enjoy your stay, participate!
It's all the words you still can say,
before they say goodbye.

And let me help investigate!
I'm closer in than you...
I'm sitting here beside myself,
and I know what I knew.

I've never followed Wiki-leaks,
that Julian Assange,
contrived intrigue, it even rhymes
with evil espionage.

I code beyond anonymous,
though often been compelled,
to seek those coming after us,
and knowing who to tell.

Oh how I'd love to sit and chat,
outside my living room.
You're on my clock, remember that.
Now, go, and stop some doom.

What's a what?


The last thing I remember
was the lightning and a man.
The thunder came, I just surrendered,
everything began.

He said "record", and pointed off,
though not with any voice,
as if he poured until I saw,
and understood the choice.

An unencrypted satellite,
now ferrys me the news.
Yet, not a word on any site,
as if they never knew.

I only meant to see the show,
to learn, and understand,
but why did they just let me know,
and what will they demand.

So fare me if I've answered late,
I might have been outside,
or somewhere cold, I couldn't say.
Whatever, I'm alive.
