Living in the Time of Distraction

Digital age on a rampage

But the mind’s eye doesn’t mind

Boredom is as bored does

Yet time passes in tick-tock trickling seconds

While hours torrent past.

Alas alas the age of distraction,

Mankind enslaved to its slave where he sits.

Information saturation but mostly its bullshit

Trivial nonsense on displays in Forever’s shop window

Outside birds twitter and fools play war game

Whilst the real fools wage war.

Apathy, psychopathy, sociopathy, a rose by another name; the stench of suffering habituated via an LCD screen.

Watch in HD, 3D, as the world pays for the American Dream.
