"Techno-zombies"


Lost in the world of tweets.
Human voice is now obsolete.
The thoughts of expressions
Oppressed by character limits.
Fear broadcasts on screens.
A cure promised with a like.
Share this to grant a vacation.
News filled by celebrity drama.
We're being fed fictional reality.
And worship talent less stupidity.
Alas, true art is lost in the decay.
Imagination is slowly dying out.
The unwillingness to learn or think
Outside of the glow of the screen.
Unlimited information on the web;
Made useless due to sheer laziness.
Trouble solving no longer being used.
We are slowly turning into drones.
The downward decline in society.
When did silicon overtake flesh?
The most powerful computer ever
Underused and under appreciated.
The device should only be a tool,
But are we evolving into a tool?
I pray we go back to the old times
And we use our minds much more.
The future I see is bleak and dreary
Instead of ruling, we are the slaves
Ruled by the machines we created.
Instead of aiming for a million views,
Let's aim to strive for a perfect Utopia.
A paradise where we sail amongst stars,
United as one race in distant galaxies.
Until we can overlook our differences,
This will never happen any time soon.
We are too locked away in our hearts,
Doomed to become techno-zombies.
Until we look with our eyes and heart,
Instead through a digital camera lens,
Will never become one race united.
