My Generation
My
generation
is
blind.
So very
blind.
We must always
be infomed.
Informed
about our
friends,
our
peers,
our
parents.
So we
take to
our
smartphones,
our
laptops,
our
technology.
So we can
fulfill
this
addiction
of
information
about
other
people.
Because
being informed
feels like,
almost
feels like
we have
friends.
Either way,
we keep the
boulder
rolling.
The boulder
of outdated
Iphones
and
Ipods.
So we can
keep ourselves
updated,
always
updated.
Updated
to the
point
of
updating
our
social network
statuses
to inform
others about
how good it
feels
to be
updated.
Because
all the
cool kids
have
the Iphone
6.
Therefore
updating
ourselves
updates
the status
of our
popularity.
Because who
judges
books by
their cover
when you have
the
coolest
phone case.
Because
I live in
a world
where I
can buy
a love.
So how
much is
happiness?
In a
world where
the only
real
is
fake,
I plead to
my generation.
Please,
look with your
eyes
and not
your
phones.
