It Approaches

It Approaches

A Poem by E.J. Waling

As the 
singularity 
draws near,
I look on with 
trepidation.
What lies
beyond
i do not know.
A technological
marvel
some say,
Nirvana
it will be.
Others
say a
dystopian future
awaits.
No one
knows
for sure!

I think back
to my youth.
Days in the 
backyard, 
hot summer days,
watching the ants
scurry around,
hearing 
the birds 
signing in the trees.
Feeling the hot 
summer breeze
caressing my face.
Just memories
of a simpler
time.
All gone now.
 I'm now wrapped in
technology,
facing an
unknown future 
as the 
singularity 
envelopes.
