A Possible Death Sentence

I agree. Well written, K.O.

Thank you Mary. Appreciate the comment.

Communication stands in the gallows and technology is the rope.
Excellent poem.

So true. Thank you for the feedback.

This is a lot of the struggle in modern day society.  In isolation, whether caused by, or aiding in, technology offers this sort of synthetic confidence.  It shapes personality with different mechanisms of reward, aside from conversation.  Similar disorder can be found in drug addicts.  The communities in themselves (like chatrooms or message boards) are just kind of fantasy and unnatural.  What's missing is an honest day's hard work, and proper social interaction.  Anyway, it becomes too convenient and allows for paranoia or laziness or narcissism, or other hosts of emotional influences that are irregular and imbalanced.  There just isn't proper interaction with environments of people getting together like there used to be.  Even out in public, everyone has their heads down in their cellphones.  You can develop a sort "addiction" to technology.  I've had similar struggles.  I'm kind of an introvert, and it's too easy to be reclusive and stay home because of technology.  Tech is great in allowing for creative possibilities, especially writing, but there needs to be soundness of mind and balance in it.  It can quickly become accursed, if there isn't the right kind of regulation.  Anyway, you do a great job of capturing some of this underlying premise in your unique and original expression of poetry here.  It is indeed a topic that needs to be expressed, heard, and shared in.  Good job, overall.  I'm glad that there are others that can see such mindlessness in occurrence in the world.

Thank you so much for the feedback and your take on my poem. Your a great writer & a true gift to have as a reviewer. Thank you.

A sad truth indeed
