technology

 
sly induction in a flowering mind
is the sinister ideology spinning on the waves
challenging previous well-hung-onto beliefs
once innocent and bright-eyed, now disenchanted

the sleepwalking don't notice the civil war upon us
as history is swept away as cinder
smoke on the breeze
children of no faith emerge
Alexa is parenting and telling them what to think

as jobs are now done by AI
the human component and hospitality is lost
we are entering an era where we will be just part of a machine

there is no privacy we are being filmed everywhere
yet the crime rate is higher than ever
where is the mystery and who is deciding who goes to jail
and who doesn't
it seems like an open and shut case when it's been filmed
or is that some sort of elitist amusement

it is a very unnerving time
When Earth has been through many catastrophic situations
and there is clear evidence of advanced technologies
and civilizations lost

I worry for our fate not that it will it change anything
if we are to be stripped of our knowledge
because we've mishandled we will
but seems a bit like the old game of giving them this much rope
and see if they'll hang themselves
