Kumbaya, O written words, customize your thoughts into bite-sized Nuggets, and store them in the clouds – in the huge video of the sky. Always easier to see the movie than to read the book, right? This isn’t Being lazy – this is efficiency, this is learning to hear and see quickly. Emoji-me your innermost feelings – and make it snappy, yet truthful – Obvious like a pebble gracefully striking the water’s surface. Forsake The grimness brought by the news of the day – be not obsessed! Bow down and worship chirps, tweets and posts, and share them. In the looking glass you can see diminished contemplations as They drift into nothingness – even the brightness of a smile is A smirk turned to stone – our language and our soul are a morbid Collection of dry bones on a sickly precipice. The new generation is born of a slain, technocratic parent – their 21st birthdays celebrated beneath the fallen soldiers of newsprint – A new world in which a museum houses the letters and arts of A coherent paragraph now called a blurb. Kumbaya.
