Digital Diet

There’s digital this And digital that But most is too much For me to grab at I thank the Almighty That as far as I know No one can grow Digital coffee. But this thought Of digital drink Makes the real mind Pause and think I’ll pass on that scheme And I would never Buy their new clever Gigabyte ice cream Gigabyte ice cream Of course is a thing A microscopic Dippin Dots’ offspring But what is the point To ingest that stuff I’m unplugging my life Coz enough is enough

Unplugging your life. Good idea for at least a few hours a day or a couple of days a week or even a week's vacation. Could we survive? Thanks for sharing this one today and for dropping by my page. Saw a sign that said, " I was out of coffee this morning, so I had tequila. Everyone is so pretty." Sara

A creative/fun write. A fun read. I love your line, "I’m unplugging my life." That sounds great to me. Have a fun day.............

Microscopic Dippin Dots. I've noticed that even in poetry, poems are getting shorter and shorter as we succumb to digital influence. I often wonder if someday, everything will be just one letter long. Nice one David.

I'm too old to have to learn all this digital stuff! Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong century! Gigabyte ice cream does not sound very tasty. Great write, David! Blessings, Kim M
