we tracked it with technology
we fixed a tracing ring
in the hope of reading data
the haunted click to sing

we followed her in boats
she pitched a role to play
we watched her shoal a stanza
as time zones fell away

she beached in California
a thousand souls did track
in a sea of rhyming couplets
love just brought her back

her enigmatic measure
a pen as gambler's stake
once I thought she smiled at me
as eye did surface break

all currents are concurrent
all hungers grow with sate
all equals carry conscience
all actions carry fate

the new fleets of media
near hunt her to the brink
yet she thrives
where no man dives

a thirst beyond a drink
