An Outcast

The digital world comes And an old man seems to become A social outcast Using a telephone instead of a handphone Using a typewriter instead of a computer Writing a letter instead of an email Reading newspaper instead of electronics news Having posting service instead of express delivery Using a cash purchase instead of an e-wallet You can't say He is left behind in life He is ignorant and careless He isn't competitive Actually he has his own world To follow and to cling to He is born in a different world And lives there till now He will change quickly If the present world is happier, safer and more hopeful But he just wonders If the present world a paradise to live
