Drones Up!

A poem originating from my daybook:

 

I am a drone

In this life

looking down

from a 1000’ up,

sending a

future feed

home

for my some other me

to see.

And what does

that me

see and feel

as we fly,

Soft aloft

Over such sills as these?

Just know

that in

my next life

infinity

will be my home.

    We had a neighbor, who has since moved, who did aerial drone photography as his hobby and all spring, summer, fall, we could hear the mosquito-like squawking of his drone way up in the clouds. His images posted on social media were lovely and interesting, but the drone sound was extremely annoying.

    Thus, a poem reaction, not directly related to your own poem of metaphor other than on a loose memory tangent:

    An aerial ear assault
    but who’s fault is that?
    Neither bird nor bat
    nor any other animal
    makes a constant sound
    quite like that of drone;
    the constant buzzing
    of a tiny engine over home

    My other candidate for annoyance hums is a robovac. Context, pretext, subtext, and text.
