A Penny For Your E-Thoughts - Year 2095

Written by Gail DeBole on March 5, 2014

Online had evolved and 
Email was passe

People were E-talking 
Without having to "say"

The device in their minds
Allowed them to discuss

By transmitting E-thoughts
To someone they trust

E-thoughts thoroughly recorded
By E-Thinking Police

Bad news for everyone
Who didn't hold proper beliefs

Good news for everyone
Who embraced the day

When safety became prevalent
In a techno-invasive way

Will complete loss of privacy
Be the price people have to pay

So that most can live
In a safe, comfortable way?


 What do you think that life in Year 2095 will be like?
