I^2

I^{^2}

The time _binding is not a
_bind^ing

Instead
it is an ^amplifier
friction_less
two hundred ^percent efficiency

You cannot ^record
some_thing
and expect it not to <sup>spread
be communicated
be re_membered forever in the soul
of a machine and _in people
you will have never known
but it lives, _still
and it lives on and grows without you

You cannot say
any_thing
and expect it not to grow
and have a life of its own
grow without you
live past you
live longer than you
but in a different place
a cornerstone of a different language
that you could not _imagine
it breeds before your eyes
and someday your words
will themselves be more intelligent
than you ever _were
and more _immortal
than I^2</sup>
