they say
the door opens
inwards
push as you will
it will not budge
&
there is no lock
so the key
cannot be gasped
nor felt
because
the door
opens
inwards
Computer poetry is warfare carried out by other means, a warfare against conventionality and language that has become automatized. Strange as it seems, our finite state automata have become the poet’s allies in this struggle, the long historical battle by which mankind pries into the surface of language to reveal its latent mysteries… R.W. Bailey, Computer Poems (1973)
