As
The elders debate
The fast gain wait
And nobody fits
What's desired
No one gets
Or they would have it
Sad it
Is
We
In no hurry to see
That what was
Is
Gone
Our reception fizzes
And no one pays attention
To the mystery
So why mention
What is history
We gave up the face to face
And started screening calls
Bought gold plated personal space
And built neo ivory walls
Then
Ring Ching
We found a chick chock dove
Which required none of the above
What a relief
Regardless of belief
That humans can hide
It's exceptable to reside
Inside satellite coverage
Lazy are our passings of time
And the colors often change
The necessaries are sublime
And the dealers are strange
But we fill out the forms
And we do as they say
Ignoring all the charms
That might get in the way
Headphones in the ears
Texting away fears
Hiding in the screen
Never to be seen
Yet no one saw it coming
When technology took over
Just like no one started running
When asked to send red rover
Let the children play there silly games
While adults the world run
As this world that is full of names
Won't share the childrens fun
It's the avoided conversations
That are sure to hide the way
These unneeded installations
To "enhance" the everyday
I don't understand
Remember when people made plans with each other?
