Social Deathwork

The persistence of digital identity 

Have you witnessed the sheer fragility

the resistance to be who you sought out to be

Mentally confined, reduce your ability

How long before human nature

becomes so scarce

anonymous forces with flesh so dead

dependant upon those who do not care

You can try to be who you cannot be

beneath a lifeless computer screen

clawing out to just be seen

you cannot just claim superiority 

This dimensional world has you at its knees

bound you to your own disease

a mass of insecurity

digital lobotomy

the last line says it all..."digital lobotomy"

the flesh is gone....we are but words on a screen, whether on the computer or texting....

society has gone too far...and relationships can be bought and canceled with just the push of a key...enter/ delete.

i really like the theme of this...and so much identify...makes me really sad.

Society dominated by digitization makes me uncomfortable. I might work on it but the idea is there. Thanks for the review.

Welcome to the beginning of the H+ society... this should be the anthem of such society. it flows perfectly and its a dark look into the reader-writer as to their involvement with feeding the beast.

Glad you like the perspective, cheers for the review.
