An Interactive Action Past: To Internalised Ipod Present Generation Poem by Terence George Craddock

swiftly within a mere few decades
change remake label gadget world keeps
snow balling rapid cultural childhood changes
kiwi experience milk bars to jukeboxes pooltables;
operating on big round now extinct twenty cent coins
these are fun entertainment stick in mind memories which haunt
there is an innocence for most in mist vapour childhood adolescent
not knowing experiencing shift social normality new experiences;
interacting with others in our environment closet world around us
in many ways electric isolation of screen touch an ipod generation is
a personification of lost rumble tumble play game skill interactions;
six friends people all internalised sitting at a table sms texting distant
other people in other places not together in the moment location present
engaging in cross table location now conversation lively fertile rapt;

is an emotional separating

from deeper

richer immediate

life eye balling

breath sharing

social experiences
