We’re living in a high tech age 
Of megahertz and gigabytes,
But still can’t manage to assuage
The itch of tick and chigger bites....

New technology
Gigahertz and gigabytes
In every pocket

Safety or madness
Design for kids in four years
Undermine childhood

Confused by DVD interactivity,
Lost in soulless Internet chat-rooms,
Spied on by precision satellites,
Tracked down by mobile phone texters,
Hit by multi-media bombardment,
Tied up with twisted video tape,
Engulfed by ephemeral nothingness,
Brain awash with binary,
Consumed by CD ROM gigabytes.

Call me stuck in the past,
Say I’m not cool, but cold,
Because my ideal is a good book ...
To have and to hold....

Hunchbacked in a room, typing electric spells of doom,
breathing out fire, an alchemy of pain, suffering and desire.

Filtered beauty but oh, beneath, lies green skin and poisonous teeth,

Artificial intelligence churns out gigabytes
 As  algorithms  set the rules
 Sifting the wrongs from rights
 With all its CPU tools

 Machines learning at the speed of light
 Spitting out bits in flight
 Speeding past us in no time
 Turning the tables at the drop of a dime

 The electrons have been set loose
 With ones and zeros as their base
 It's too late to stop them now
 As they swiftly move in cyber space
