He lived in a shack
Writing his poems day and night
No one read the work
Death came and the tombstone said
“Brilliant mind and tortured soul”
Robots
Devoured
Marketplace
Mass produced poetry
All that sold
Humans
Brainwashed
Read only what they were told

Another
Slow business day
Shopkeeper
Engulfed
By
Magazines and newspapers
Eats a microwave meal
On a chipped plate
Internet controls fate
Scraps
Scraped off
For
Pooch under table
Nothing
Anymore
Stable

Tried to open an email account today
1st company said
“Need a cellphone”
I only have a landline
2nd company said
“Push button home phone ok”
Not sure
What is worse?
Inflamed ankle
Stumbling around with a cane
Or
After 18 years
With no mobile phone
One day
Possibly
Muscled into a smartphone
And
Capitulate

Simple devices
Erode
Democracy
TV listening to me
Complete infiltration has succeeded
Gadgets
Handle surveillance chores
No need to kick down front door
Privacy
Does not exist anymore
Vacuum sucking up brain cells
Artificial intelligence
Taking society into the bowels of hell
Creepy and crawling
Along the path to oblivion
The technology masters’
Goal
Is to make everyone reptilian
Hold on a second
I will open wide
So you can shove it down my throat
Artificial intelligence
Tossing the human race
Down a catastrophic slippery slope
You high tech freaks
Crave to wire everything on the Globe
Creating software and machines
Without hearts
Futuristic
Armies of Robots
Totally state of the art
Seizing power
All societies will fall
Because geeks
Will no longer
Have the intellectual capacity
To halt
The contraptions
From controlling us all
Shake Shake up the trees
Go out live life with energy
Then no regrets
Social Media
Like being in a jungle
From comfort of desk
Recycle the bin
What information is chosen?
Keep the minds frozen
