Today births a new brood A race of mindless clones Of wakeful dreamers pining for a fix Always hunting for the perfect selfie Once their forebear's palate knew wine A well cooked meal could make them Wax poetry Those days now gone Now all hope is lost No eye or mind to see Picasso's Abstracts And the genius of Van Gogh a bore They wake to the first ping Hand glued to their deity in a fevered Blur of strokes They tweet and stream to their god in Hand And at night their sleep a faint ghost Of of what rest should be That faceless lifeless beast that tags Along everywhere the 'cool' takes Them Ethereal and all-knowing it is The god that fits perfectly in the palm of their hand Adieu to the old gods and goddesses There is a new god and his name is Tech!
Technology has transcended the imagined limits for it,and only God knows what ''they '' will give us in the next years to come People have abandoned the common interactions that make us human for the friendship of phones. We need them to do everything these days,we eat,sleep and dream of them. If that's not what an IDOL is,then nothing is.
