Ode to Y2K (Millennium bug)

Anarchist gene
re-inventor of chaos
child of 60’s myopia

You are Hollywood's greatest invention–
somewhere between Godzilla and alien
You live in our DNA
You breed inside our machines.

You are the rings in the Jesus penis
the eyes of the una-bomber
the o’s in Pol Pot.

You are the grass that grows from laptop
You are the hands
on every clock;

When you start working,
everything else … dot. dot.
dot. stops.
