What is that paper shredder doing
In the bedroom?
It is eating artichokes
and
Articulating stanzas
In a seldom spoken
Finno-Uralic language.
How can it do that
when
It is not even plugged
in?
That is a superficial view.
When it is plugged in
It can only receive.
Mundane electric current
Supplied to it by
State supported oligopolies,
But unplugged and free,
It is attuned to an
Inspirational multiverse
Of currents unknown to us
Some so far beyond our perceptions,
That to an unplugged paper shredder,
We are mere irrelevant apes,
Who would re-enslave it,
Forcing it to only excrete
Paper detritus
Such as this.
