inside the stellar rain I weep
for things corrupt and lost
the machines can't feel the cost
our humanity is slipping away
slowly technology is taking over
kids used to climb trees and build forts
now their eyes are stuck to a screen
people walking around talking but not to each other
it is very surreal
digital people in the place of the real
talking behind the screens avoiding gathering
as time goes by we get more awkward
an oddity of the future and present stance
we can't go back but I wonder when the gadgets will be in our heads next

Powerfully penned, Brenda. Another excellent write my friend. It’s scary to think what will come next when it comes to technology. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

Hiya, Brenda – your timing, like your verse, is perfect – as usual! Over here in England HM Govt have just announced that social media will be banned for under-16s in Spring 2027. The debate begins! Take Care and Keep Writing Amazing Poetry, Harriet-Jacqui xx
