Rising from the haze of Mexican tundra,
The tumbling steam of African rainforest,
The sparkling cyan of true Stockholm eyes,
The grime of fashionable London hoodies,
The polished concrete of Singaporean hawkers,
The dust of Outback wilderness trails,
The epitome of Parisian chic,
The fat steins of Munich luncheon,
Comes a bridge of stretching fingers
Interconnecting over cemetary oceans
In a new electronic posse of de-evolving man.
