Wired
Ted Hughes warned of telegraph wires
and their tones that empty human bones
In this more modern digital age
I wonder too, through wired rage
Whether the internet, full of trolls and ****
Can perhaps evolve beyond its scorn
And become the tool for improving life,
Sharing ideas, battling strife
As our brains melt, and the icecaps too
It seems, surely the best thing to do
Is to ditch the trolls into the sea,
Re-wire, connect and find the key
Use it to solve the problems ahead
With enlightenment, not wired dread.
