Poetry
Russian Three
By NathanRoberts
20 April 2008

Inspired by images created by the artist Alex Dragulescu. Based on actual code, Dragulescu was able to show what computer viruses, malware etc. look like.  

Russian Three  is a text and image-based spam which preys on recipients' personal insecurities.





Scarlet nipples spam new life
through realms where nothing eats or shits,
launching questions from a cornet:
'Ever heard you're getting fat?'
Rippled users click,
and carry baggage through locking screens,
and hordes of random memories,
as we download discontent
into yet another century.

Sorry Nathan, I don't understand computers, let alone poetry about their 'illnesses.'
