Wired Statements

Many a live wire would be a dead one except for his connections.

Let the world be one
And oft the wire would wonder,
Future, wirelessness

▀▀▀▀  ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀


Currents of our time
Aspirations of our time
A wire ’round our throat

Bird on the Wire and
Three Little Bird, the crooners
Croon and the tunes swoon

▀▀▀▀  ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀


Overhead wires are
As ubiquitous as
Curfews, bandhs and strikes
