I walk silicon fields
in emerald waves of green,
blister my feet on golden roads:
flashing impulse in energy.

I watch for signs of digital death
breathe a petrochemical sky
and see beneath the ground
stainless roots of steel:

high purity piping, 316L
feeding nutrients to circuitry,
double lined, with sniffers
searching an arsine leak.

Its parts per billion, in argon sea,
certain death to carbon types,
yet merely ingredient
to pave the digital road.

Workers burn photomasks
of micron based geometries,
assemblies built in bunny suits
and class 1 environments

to pave the golden highway
in emerald epoxy fields.
And I watch the traffic, I paint the words
onto this digital expressway.

Chips and circuit boards (I assume)

Never looked quite this way before.
