What I Have Learned About Technology

Technology that is useful, Is built by hands that are purposeful. Technology that is helpful, Is designed by the insightful. Technology can still be mastered, If enough of us don't get plastered. Technology is a tool, that has more blades than a swiss army knife, With the potential to enhance our life, If we can still see what is real, And give the planet time to heal. Technology can be branded low tech or high tech, So, we can decide what is needed on deck, Not what we can get if we decide to take what is written on that cheque. Technology that is reliable, Is not always available. Technology that is unfixable, Is readily available, And sits on every table. Technology that is harmful, Is plentiful, Technology that is sold to the gullible, Is profitable. Technology becomes compulsory in most lands, When it is placed in government hands. Technology has an impact that is undeniable, For which you and I are liable. So, while you are still able, While you still have a brain that is rational, Due diligence is advisable, While the choice is still available, For humans to do work that makes them essential.
