“Letters to a Young YAWP Tech L1”

--

A contemporary modification,

the multitasked YAWP

would have terrified Whitman.

One can only YAWP in serial.

Parallel YAWPs sap the soul.

The bandwidth spike

sears the insulation of the wires.

Leaves the brain,

smoking with the sweet smell

of burning neurotransmitters.

Young, ethanol-cooled brains YAWP the best

Yet even they only do it in serial.

The multitasked YAWP is an impossibility.

One can only play for time

thread the multiple tasks

one by one

Which of course, is not

the all-mighty, world changing YAWP.
