Raised on instant gratification
rewarded for masturbation
spread out on our screens
society based on ratings
Like bad movie critics,
we send mixed signals to artists
confuse our creatives
and give pleasure to mediocracy
We’re old souls
in new bodies with prosthetic limbs of plastic and glass
extensions of our memories and minds
we’ve built a reliance on them
One day when the sky cracks in half
satellites will fall from space
we will all be crushed by
The fruits of our progress
killing us slow.
