Technology
SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGy!
Technology grows
As the day goes.
Though some homes uses the
broom.
But mine uses vacuum.
Gone are days of town criers,
Awhile ago, people share flyers.
Now fast and swift
Can information cross barriers?
Talking of a machine mould,
Compared to a manual mould.
What you do for several days,
Can be done within a day.
Who on earth can lift a car?
Even those on drug, can only try.
For technology as heard your cry.
The jack lifts all, without a care.
Great pleasure,
Has technology brought.
For a room could be so hot,
But technology turns it into a
freezing hall.
In medical world,
You are like ‘sagging’ of the
fashion world.
For gone are days
When people die of pain.
For days gone by are for piggy
banks.
But right now, we go for online
banks.
For they are more safe,
But yet to be free from crime.
Full of advantages
But not without disadvantages.
With this truism
Technology is not left going.
As wole shoyinka rightly said,
In one of his presentation.
That there are wrathful wings
Of man progression.
Requesting a slap from ones
clerk.
For him, it’s a corn
In a lions den.
But for robots, a fish in a dogs
front.
Far indeed,
Has technology helped?
For replacing snail-bat things,
With tortoise-horse things.
