TECHNOLOGICAL WONDERLAND

Fact. Simile.
To ease the understanding.
Received by machine,
Headed corporate branding
Arranged, composed
Dealt to the page
Hands of indifference
Feeding mists of rage
Sweeping, enveloping
Clearing points of view
Sharpened minds reprocess
Whilst blunted brains enstew
And the advent of machines
Spreads death o’er human dreams.

what does "enstew" mean?

is it me or are people making up words these days?

el_tiddlero

the word stew meaning "To focus the attention on something moodily and at length" it doesnt take that great a leap to figure what enstew means from there... it means the thoughts are clogged in the brain, unable to be rid of them, grinding its processes to a slow meaty boiling stop......
as for making words up these days haven't we been making up words since the languages have existed.....

the raven

no offense but you could at least inform us of your poetic liberties, lest we think some fool has tread the waters of ignorance and, as in a turgid tragedy, fallen in.

el_tiddlero

fair enough.. how should one indicate where licence has been taken... inverted commas??

shiv

Enjoyed the helter-skelter cleverness of it all
Reads to me like a creative deconstruction of a mass company-wide corporate email
And the rhyming isn't in your face, which is always a plus...

el_tiddlero

thanks shiv... did you like the joke at the start??
