Electronic Couriers

  • General proton of the android division 
  • Stands at the ready in antenna hanger 
  • Waves of particle soldiers behind him 
  • Waiting at a moments notice for danger 
  • A request comes in from the leader 
  • Appearing to the general instantaneously 
  • Carrying news of great importance 
  • But not to be opened, carried anonymously 
  • So as they emerge, flying furiously upward 
  • They forever face obstacle by the myriad
  • Fighting through any structure then finally the sky
  • Moving in half a second as if they never had
  • Reaching synthetic satellite security up in space 
  • They are reinforced and redeployed downward 
  • Now falling through the same crucible as before 
  • Electron corridors breaking through each ward 
  • They arrive in a second at their final destination
  • The general presents the note from far away 
  • Haggard from travel he desires secrets revealed 
  • As the recipient reads the message aloud "k"
