Mikaela Castledine #113 Metadata

There is a daily tracking of poets
each travel poem a map
each weather poem a triangulation
every line on walks and thoughts is telling

There are revealing identikits
there are distinguishing features
of Annas and Sues and Sarahs and Lizzs
of Andrews and Myrons
of Kevins and Kits
there are coloured pins
there are strings connecting

Every grief shared is a divulgence 
every paper read a confession
every idea sparking object
on to which they turn their light
is a sign of damning intention

They are being watched
and will find at the end of this year of writing
they have been caught by the algorithms
seized and detained via the covert
identification of poems
