Compliance

A Poem by E.J. Waling

Different.
Things are
different.
Like never
before.
Connections.
Like never
before.
Technology
weaving
through.
Touching all.
Like never
before.
Reverberating.
Coursing
through minds.
Influencing,
controlling,
altering perception.
Never be the
same.
Control tightening.
Grabbing the
mind,
the soul.
Forcing
compliance.
Subtlety
forcing
compliance.
Global influence.
Global control.
Tightening its
grip.
Levers of
control
toggled.
Toggled
by the
few.
Awesome power
like never
before.
Compliant
sheep.
Compliant
herd.
Like never
before!

The Internet is having a huge influence on world events. So very different from when I was growing up. News now flashes round the world in minutes. A picture or a tweet can send some into a frenzy in seconds. Yes, there are many more sheep around these days. An interesting piece which captures the mood of the moment.

Yes things are "different" more sheep now than ever before. I understand your ramble. Sadly...it's what keeps me awake at night.
