Stunted By Technology
Stunted by technology
The brain begins to shrink,
Decisions taken for us
No need then to think.
Laptops, ipads, iphones
Negate intelligence,
Yet show me a computer
Blessed with common sense.
What then original thought,
That diamond in the dark.
That flash of inspiration,
Where a human left their mark.
It seems there's no escaping it
I tried to be alone,
As I sat upon a mountain top
Above me, buzzed a drone.
