Hybrid Turtle

I'm tired of crawling out of my shell.
The analog architecture
of this body
isn't meeting
21st century demands,
and I can't live another hundred years
standing still.
But while you're getting me ready
for the next millennium,
don't leave me behind.
I need to keep up with the times.
The only problem I can see
is a future passing by
as I'm doing all I can
to live in the now,
and when I finally think
I'm all caught up
I'll have to climb back in
to see there's still so far to go.
