Technological Breakdown

Technological Breakdown. . Has Hi-tech technology Now gone too far That we seem lost without In this hedonistic instant gratification Obsessed days . Or were we better without it yesterday When life was simpler and less complicated In so many different ways . Of course it has made life easier And communication better still But I think it's gone too far We are moving too fast In a speeding burning car Without a brake . For the good souls it’s a useful tool But for the evil one’s A Devils playground With souls to take Leaving devastation Within it’s corruptive wake . Where is the joy today? For the evil and greedy have taken it away With ads that invade your home All the time on social media And now on your phone . The latest must-haves Up for grabs Telling you it’s the most current desirable thing They just don’t want to take your money But sell your soul and even take your skin . I used to love to watch old movies That I enjoyed as a kid on TV but now they have taken them away And now charge you a fee . Too much choice too much hype The net gets darker With so much trolling and so much vice But serious sin comes with a price . Ads that bring pain and sorrow Invest in a will or funeral plan now Never mind tomorrow Brainwashing by marketeers And greedy investors Who hound you into submission Vultures who pick at your bones and pester . Endless logins and security Take the joy Out of everything for me . Bulling extortion and scamming Viruses and jamming The dark web And evil sceaming and planning . The high cost of technology Doesn’t just come From the latest labeled must-have phone But the one’s we use every day That intrude our lives And our home . G5 and too many microwaves May take us to our early graves Technology has gone way too far And soon will have its day. . ‘’We are just too reliant’’. , Peter Dome©2020.
