Urgency - Social Media Vices

by stellarhero

What is 1 to 1.5 currency to relativity urgency brings negativity It's not about new tools it withers your tools bring productivity The way you slap that old guitar, the way you drive that beat up car How fast does it run? How long does it last? How fast does it charge? New can only take you so far Let that distance your reach be derived from a skill, not from how rich or famous your are. I often walk, even though I own a car...I prefer feeling the wind, the open-air, it makes me feel like I'm apart of something The emotions I feel are driven from an organic substance, the dirt that I see the wind that I feel..these constant conflicts between what is man-made and what was here. The stare of a deer, the tree was its friend, it's now been destroyed to make a path of cement. That path of cement created a state of solidarity, urban prosperity, violence numbified by media regularities. Civilizations become the norm, even though we all barely speak to each other physically Digital formats become our literal floor mats, every result you leave results in a digital footprint, cataloged for the marketing lab rats Too complex to understand like a physical labyrinth, Let me elaborate So let me ask you ?! What is 1 to 1.5 Can you live without your social media vices, multimedia devices, tell me the definition of what "like" is Currency, urgency, thumbs up if you feel like every part of your life is an emergency, if so then share it, so the world can see Then watch your conversations about fashion turn into a targeted ad about a jacket that is burgundy Invasion of privacy? Not if your privacy is for the world to see. Coincidently that jacket is on sale, so if you buy it this theory will not fail, and if you don't the media will still prevail, it's presence is an entire quarter, meaning it's heads or tails. That's urgency hiding behind a veil.
