lol.
well i was thinking about the way that the internet is a technology / commodity that has completely changed our (/ my) style of interaction - even the scope of human ambition.
and suggesting that's more authentically the role of poetry and art, even science - which definitely consists of wanting to know stuff for it's own sake, which is maybe opposed to wikipedia etc.
i dunno if i got the balance right, the end line seems overly serious, but it's kinda serious topic.
obviously (?) the thing about getting your phone calls free, was an attempt to include an absurd element to it. there's a couple of other things i can say in self critique - e.g. "play" carries the connotations i want, of frivolity as well as literature / acting.
