You are likely to be eaten by a grue. | |
If this predicament seems particularly cruel, | |
consider whose fault it could be: | |
not a torch or a match in your inventory. | |
It got narrated at you in the second person. | |
Every time you booted up, it seemed you got another version | |
of your life told to you by a status line blinking, | |
the impossible people you could be without thinking | |
yourself insane of personality problems, | |
with a mop on a drop ship or trying to stab a goblin. | |
That don't play in public life. You get arrested, | |
psychoactive medication daily in your big intestine | |
and attesting that the voices in your head | |
said the dwarf shot first, embedded arrow then you bled. | |
But doctors with needles posit repeatedly | |
that you knocked down that midget in the park unneededly. | |
This has seeded the idea that you should | |
never venture from the house, never get misunderstood | |
by the non-player characters inhabiting Earth, | |
none of whom are too concerned about Nord & Bert, | |
not one of whom ever aimed a fish around the room, | |
trying to get it in the ear canal because doom | |
beset the last planet they were on, or near | |
the verge of a set of poetics they wouldn't hear. | |
Never peered at the clues with invisible ink. | |
No SM goddesses ever gave them pause to think. | |
Never piloted six robots, each distinct. | |
Don't matter how many 2-liters they drink, | |
they're not gonna follow what you're saying at all. | |
They impugn and appall in the scope of their gall, | |
as you hide in your room in disgust with the lights turned out. | |
Turn ‘em on in a turn. Leave ‘em off for now. | |
You read a pamphlet from a mailbox that urges low cunning, | |
offers cursor and prompt: type >run and you're running, | |
and parses what you tell it, pronouns intact, | |
abbreviations if you need ‘em (better keep it gramat.). | |
Better punctuate your sentences and never redact | |
the name of anything ambiguous. You're about to get asked, | |
do you mean the red one, the round one, the crooked, or the blue? | |
Better keep that in your pocket, don't know yet what it could do. | |
Could be the spray for the grue; you're gonna need it if it is — | |
a situation that reloads, restarts, or quits. | |
Wonder how many points out of how many points | |
you've got to get before you're done. Endeavor then to rejoice, | |
when you wish more ardently, identities shed, | |
for continuance, the rhyme forever voyaging. Fled | |
from all lights and colors, from all smells and sound: | |
just the lyric on the monochrome display and you're proud | |
to make another verse appear by solving riddles. | |
If you didn't have to sleep, you know you'd never seek acquittal. | |
You'd be ever in the middle and the midst of quest. | |
If it weren't for >don the gown. you'd never get dressed. | |
In your underwear typing, just like Front, | |
keyboard attached up to my fingers — wrists bear the brunt — | |
as I seek to do stunts simply through their descriptions. | |
I think I went once to some sands that were Egyptian. | |
And I retain plane tickets, snapshots, receipts, | |
yet I stand unconvinced that this has happened to me. | |
I wouldn't want to misremember or get confused. | |
Recall of crawling towards a pyramid appearing over dunes. | |
Recall of entering the thing and descending stairs. | |
Does it descend from there, adventure to nightmare? | |
Did I battle a snake? Was the treasure intact? | |
Or did the TRS-80 in my brain get hacked? | |
Thanks, Grampa, for buying it. Now my life's ruined. | |
Twenty-two years later, head's infested: got the grue in. | |
PLUGHing, XYZZYfying, trying to escape, | |
but I can't ‘cause I'm up and around and awake. |
