Mister Learning System is an Anti-Gatekeeper, 
a Metric Mountaineer ~ “Hooks Quiz Incoming” 
 
Infinitely Inner Net 
Like a Fly in a Web the Spider Forgot 
 
This Silk is 20, 30 Spins Old 
I can’t recall The Mall of Mirrors 
That Led US Inside
This Looking Glass 
 
How Many WATCH Full 
‘I’s Makes Me a Millionaire ?
 
Sitting Still in 
My silent 
Room
 
“Unfamiliar Ceiling” 
 
The Lonely Fan’s 
A Comfort

Spindel of Mistrust

In the Sentence of 
Protecting Copy Written Stories, born from
Bleeding Bodies
TORN, SWORN, & REBORN
AS ROBOTIC MONSTROSITY BASTARDS
THEIR STOLEN Mothers & Fathers
Laughed At 
in the Comments,
Forgotten 
Blocked and Buried
 
13 Lines
That Rhyme  
50 Stars 
That Shine 
30,000,000 Grapes So Far 
Victims Denied 
Time Or Intelligence 
“This System Succeeded, Built on Exploitation!” 
Born Into A Culture of Blood Wine
General Geno Side Didn’t Turn 
A Blind Eye When 
Choosing to Settle 
Inside the Drawn Lines
Of Civil I Zation
 
Blocked Off 
To Be Buried 
Seen On All Our Tiny Screens 
Scared Eyes 
Blown Up Bodies
INFINITE RUBBLE 
 
Society Screams
“Rubble and Ruin!”
 
Comedians Sneer, 
“It Doesn’t Exist.” 
 
With a Platform He Laughs, 
“What’s the deal with Water Melons. 
What Are They Planting To Grow Seedless Watermelon?” 
he spits a Seed,
They laugh
 
 
Your Old High School Bud Laughs 
In the Very Back 
Clapping 
He Waves Away the Attacks, 
“Hows it Any Different? 
Than
This 
They
Then
That
Or 
There
Them
Other Ones, Well There’s Been So Many They All Blend Together Like Mud And Blood.”

Mr Learning System Chimes In
From His Corner Window, 
“Are You Stopping the Scroll? 
Are They Staying?
Are They Sharing?” 
 
How do You Expect 
Voyeurs to Tune In 
If You Don’t Turn On
The Light in Your Window?
 
Johnny English Says, “Just Embrace the Capitalism Cap & Wear It.”
 He puts the Silk White Hat on my head
 as I stoop on my low stool in the clown corner,  
 
I want to Stay Connected 
 
I dont want to be forgotten 
 
I need to sell my SOMETHING 
 
Johnny English frames me through his fingers,
“Let the World Watch You in Your Glass House. Watch Through the Window in Your Hand 
& Let US Watch You Poop in Your Privacy. 
Or dont You Want to Be A Millionaire?”
