That which is old is new again

You don't have to live that long to see.
That which is old is new again.

For as we are told.
In the words of the wise.

Nothing is new under the sun.

But wait just a minute.

For us on this planet,
It's new to wear the internet
on a contact lense.

New to access our desktop
from the wall of our house.

And remember when a Fax was new?
The iPhone, too?
It's technology that has seen the widest landscape of possibility.

Just wait. And watch.
Because after it's all built, bought and sold.
We'll wake up one day.
And want to retreat.

We don't have to be on ralith TV to be somebody.
We don't have to answer a message when it arrives.
We can wait till tomorrow to answer a call.

We can deal with being alone.
Instead of sleeping with our phone.

What will it take?
Come full circle.



               


Coming full circle.
Walk the Labyrinth.
Walk the maze to the center.
Then the path out again.
Walk it and see.
That which is old is new again.
