Given what this forum covers, I am curious what poems about technology resonate with people here. Not necessarily poems that are enthusiastic about technology but poems that engage with it seriously in any direction.

The lineage goes back further than you might think. Poems about the telegraph, factories, the telephone. The question of how human experience changes when communication and computation change is not a new one.

Share something you love, something that surprised you, or something you wrote yourself.

Tracy K. Smith's Life on Mars engages with technology through cosmology and grief in a way that has stuck with me for years. The Richard Feynman poem specifically is remarkable
ISA maxed. Costs minimised.
