Through the portal of electric thought

Through the portal of electric thought...

There, just through the trees my light waited, I ran

My life would be touched by the accumulated voices, spoken on a wind of wire

I closed my eyes for a few moments and a soft male ‘voice’ whispered:

‘Enter; walk past the three trees and then stage left.’

I was too new to understand ‘why,’ but followed his voice past the trees,

Breathing in an ad.dict.cious air; I felt enthralled within

‘Stand here and wait for it,” he spoke and the warmth of his confidence inspired my own; I waited a while, humming, or was that my CPU acting up again?

Presently he withdrew a notepad from his pocket; the size of his palm pilot impressed me

Quickly I looked away, feeling the blush takeover my face; wow, portal hopping was going to be tough

A golden layer, like the gentle web of the writing spider appeared; widgets of gold flickered in the gray borders that sat at the edge: a beauty I had never seen before this moment

‘What is your name?’ He was texting again.

‘Lots,’ I answered.

‘Good, then draw one and start walking.’ His brows arched.

‘Wait, what will I need to take with me?’ I asked

‘Common sense,’ oozed the warm ‘voice’, growing less audible by the moment.

‘Great! Seeing I have none.’

The ‘voice’ last words: ‘Click here; travel the light, good byte.’

SIGH.



The saga will continue… what will the naïve wire-bearer find next? Stay tuned.
