I now plug my mind into the main frame.I am escaping the real world.Into a fabricated universe.Here I can be anything that I choose to be.And I feel totally free.I never want to leave this place.Here I can be the hero or the villain.I spend all my savings to plug in.But it’s well worth it.I … Continue reading Cyber Fix: Robert St. Germain
