Turing Machines

jaywalkers move
red blood cells shuttle
forward forward write back read

Photons hit my eyes
the light of her
forward forward write back read

electrons, nerves
amped and sluggish
forward forward write back read

no amount of rain will clean this stain
Pacing away from her I
hear her smile as she bursts into flames
hear her smile as she bursts into flames

excellent posture
forward forward write back read
forward forward write back read

our minds meet
with shuffling feet
forward forward write back read

bleeding shins
counters of beans
Know the two of us are Turing Machines

forward forward write back read
forward forward write back read

There's no stopping us two Turing machines

forward forward write back read
forward forward write back read

Beat elements to this poem. Reminds me of Lawrence Ferlinghetti who wrote "I Am Waiting"
