Home botnets
Nets of things
Three-person babies
Unidentified drones

It matters not if anyone is home
Though `anyone` and `home`
Are no longer defined
Conclusively

Where things come from and
Where they are going is anyone’s guess
Though maybe the second Mom
Has some idea

The experts drone on
Careful to protect their sources
Lest they become netted
Like every other thing

The rest of us spectate
Mostly toward the middle
Receiving history
Unimpressed
