Jeffrey Spencer Poet Rhyme

Green

Green

As the world becomes more green
With the greatest of intentions
For land and sea, the air we breathe
We are sick with new afflictions

Technology is to simplify
Yet connection, disconnects
Our communities of ‘The Walking Dead’
Are a loss of introspect

As hunger strikes right here at home
We are given what we need
To qualify; less ambition
We are slaves to other’s greed

Life use to be a rainbow
A ROY-G-BIV display
But now, it’s only Red and Blue
Divided
By shades of gray

I love the way it shows that we are typing instead of talking and missing out on so much communication in doing so. great write! Jeffrey Spencer October 18, 2017 at 7:57 PM Hi Jon. I'm glad you liked it. It truly is a huge problem these days. Hopefully people will realize and reconnect without the electronics. Thanks for your comment. Have a great night.
