Security Camera Disguised as Birdhouse

Diana Keren Lee

your life is divided into fifteen-second clips

the sound of all your pauses

o lonely one shed the worm

the toxic green of blockbuster films

time needs something to kill too

positive capability is the tree

bowing in broken Korean

where an old riot was never recorded

bird of paradise a bright orange slice through your eye

the camouflage now pixelated like your quick response

the robot thinks he knows he's not a pawn

dyslexia in dystopia

the socioeconomic as seriocomic

security camera disguised as birdhouse
