who decides
what becomes popular
in our world?
how far does
the machine go
to dig for
the next big thing?
and when does it decide
when the next big thing
just needs to die down?
is there a switch
that can be flipped
to tell a thing
to fizzle out
or stay strong?
i want to meet
the machine,
i want to ask it
how it works,
and whether it looks at
the feeble creatures
that aren’t developed
and just want
a second of love.
or if it looks at
the thriving beetle
that worked to build
his colony and
still gets the short end
of the stick.
i want to know
where it gets its ideas,
where it decides
who to pick
and how far they go
and where they end up.
does the machine have
full control over
all of that?
or does it let them go
once they take off?
can i pick your brain, machine?
