In this world we live in
countries celebrate and glorify
the accomplishment of
exceeding a cellphone's broadband.

I understand this means
the country is developing
but it also says a lot
about who we are now.

WHERE HAS HUMANITY GONE TO?

What happened to written letters
or sad goodbyes
with sloppy kisses
and a promise to never forget?

What happened to the urgency
to see someone after a long time
rather than see them online,
pretending they are here?

Where is the human warmth
in spending a dinner together
without a single person
touching their mobile phones?

WHAT HAPPENED TO HUMANITY?
WHY ARE WE CELEBRATING THIS?

As technology goes up,
humanity goes down.

I think you can say,
humanity is inversely proportioned
to technology.
