Even better on the 2nd read.
Thanks :D
I like that..change without true progress...
the word inevitable jars a little with me, not sure why
This should have been labeled as the future manifestation of haiku in retro jetpack theme. Eight.
lol
This place is dead! Or perhaps hibernating?
It definitely goes in cycles. But this one's definitely more of a downer than previous ones.
In the bus terminal of the future... poemranker is the writing on the wall. I'm thinking of making it iPhone-friendly. Any thoughts on how to get fresh blood? Just need people reading and commenting and voting... or more typically just commenting and voting ;)
True, but iphone wont help, I think. It's still the best constructed poetry site on the internet

As for anti-grav and VTOL, they look like results of the same technology. I don't know what FTL is. The last line is funny
VTOL is more just the direction of thrust; anti-grav I hope to be much more spectacular. :) FTL - faster than light (travel). Which teleportation generally qualifies as, but I was grasping. Glad it got a chuckle.
resumption of SEARCH?
