Google Box calls every number.
Call every
number Google Box.
(Short circuit?)
Why this task?
Collaboration power—
tie up the phone lines.

Search numbers
within you Google.
Call call call
(all of them?)
reach out to Robert,
then buzz the Midnight Cruiser.
A strain on circuits.

As you search,
I stand and watch you;
sleekly smooth…
like magic.
The age of Star Trek finds us
jaw-dropped and nervous.
