War

A Poem by E.J. Waling

War.
Technological
war on
humanity
has begun.
Battle lines
drawn.
Been
infiltrating
for years.
Imperceptible
at first.
Subtle
in its
approach.
Entwining
itself amongst
its makers.
Used
for the
common
good.
Then, at
some point,
it happened.
Influencing
changing
perspectives.
Moving
creators
to a
different
view.
Using
for its
own reasons.
Different
reasons.
Melding with
controlling
thought.
Enslaving.
Creators
oblivious
of the tactic.
Then it was
too late!

So very scary and true. Speaks volumes of technology and social media. And the devious entanglements they have on our daily lives. Pernicious and vile in its infection much like a virus that is killing us now. Both a virus and plague upon us, but which will kill us faster? Wonderful work John.
