To a Question Regarding Sci Fi Games

Once upon a time in the not too distant future past now it-doesn’t-matter-time-is-an-illusion, incidents,
incidents are real, piled upon incidents called time,
a construct for the constrained, not infinity allowed
bound,
a code was sent.

And you ask me what games I like to play:
science fiction and fantasy.
The code in packets, injected;
like the blood, in pulses in the veins and arteries
of the living body politic, mix and assimilate
flowing beat by beat by beat
no changes.

An ever so slight failure here
and then nothing no trace detected
later one or two, not related?

The 21st century carries on.
And you wonder about games played on the computer.
Another pulse, a code a decision made
And you wonder about games and the screen and who lost the front of her blouse
As if that were a concern?
Victoria’s Secret ads = more skin
And so
Yet another failure of infrastructure,
Some from age,
And then there are the others: cold dark things,
things stop if only for a while, a second;
Time again remember?

No shot fired.
Signed,
Sun Zi
