Homogenized

Humanity
is now in a
blender.
For 
centuries 
humanity
lived in pockets,
developing 
different ways
of being.
Time passes
humanity
spreads   
mixing the
pockets.
Friction, grinding,
war,
the pockets
grind against 
one another.
Time passes
technology 
advances.
Enter the 
Internet.
Homogenization
accelerates at
the speed of 
light.
Old ways
obliterated,
pockets 
homogenized.
a new world
is
born.
