Ahhh... the Net! (w/audio)

[Doreen Peri]

listen here
>>>... Ahhh~! The NET!

Ahhhhh~! The NET!

It's the bless-ed interfest,
the inter-mess stupid highway,
the blagosphere, the webtubes,
the blogoblag, the worldwide blahblah,
the webstratmospheric tub-oblog,
the inerfestiveworldwide blagatube,
the intermittent megamesstic metasphere,
the tubularly connected indeterminable
superunstructured progressanet
and deprogressive erotizone,
the massive megamall,
the impermanent stratablogular
global beast.

Ahhhh, the net!
Welcome!

It's a messy confessional.
It's a ware promotion.
It's various cries and whines.
It's tune time and crime time,
a damn spambot haven.
It's an icky wicki circuit game.
Allialli in, it's a porn hustler,
a fileswap clusterfuck.

Some soothe each other's grieving,
some lose their temper, seethe like snakes,
some take, some keep each other's secrets,
some compete for attention, some exchange jokes,
some rant, pitch tantrums, some troll,
disrupt the peace, many tease each other
with empty flirts, some look issues straight in the cyclops eye,
some try to avoid certain topics at all costs,

many have too many rules,
many have too few,
and there are some I knew
who collected romances
like cyberflies, pinning each in the thorax,
wings glued down so they couldn't fly away.

Ahhhh, the net!
Some have met, some have engaged, some have continued to
persuade or dissuade, some have genuinely eluded or precluded
a variety of fade-ins and fade-outs, some have attempted a whisper,
some a shout and some (in the more extravagant bunch) have actually
contributed to the operational status by various means.

it's an emoty-con
an abbreviated jarg-on
an accronym feast,
a laugh outloud winkie smiley
tag you're it blagospheric
an instantaneous massage
an international strange exchange.
(and an occasional deliberate typo.)
It's a mass addict photoshop-touched
photolabular electroplex
a sex playground,

this tubularly connected indeterminable
superunstructured progressanet
and deprogressive erotizone,
the massive megamall,
the impermanent stratablogular
global beast.

Ahhhh, the worldwide
blahblah!

well somehow i don't seem to be able to find a copy of the final text i recorded but oh well.. wtf.. it's the NET for crissake.. who cares? lol

[Lightning Rod]

I love this piece, Doreen

but, hmmmmm

I know you are sideways

but let's remember infinity

I look forward to a weekly installment

[Doreen Peri]

This IS something new.

It's the newest thing I've done.

And thanks... I hope for more new stuff too.

I appreciate your kind comments.

Thanks for the help recording.

i read the poem whilst listening
remembered hearing-reading g corso's "the bomb"
and he flowed, made subtle skips, changes,
kept flowing
real nice effect

who did the guitar and drums?

how about something with piccolo and base?

[Doreen Peri]

Hey jimbo! Thanks for listening...

I created the music, too, on the piano keyboard... just changed the "voices" on it and recorded a couple more tracks w/ my vocal track. Lrod was kind enough to lend his engineering skills and time.

Piccolo & bass... hmm.. great idea! Next time I record something, I'll try that.

I remember Corso's bomb piece.. never heard him read it.. gotta find it now.
