who needs thoughts when no one can think
drowning in so many streams we can't sync
our souls are starving consumed by the feed
surrounded by plenty but lost in the greed
investing in futures that are so far gone
just to feel apart of something all alone
how to look within while lost on the inside
paying for attention to get taken for a ride
life keeps passing by while we race to die
when it's time to settle up we pay a I for AI
Nice work Clay! I like the humanity in this piece. Makes me yearn for my high school years before widespread mobile phones. Late 1990s were a magical time. Thank goodness I got to experience dating and relationships before everyone moved online.
Heyo @tarazkp... looks like we got another battlemage poet!
