We live
|
|
Well enough alone,
|
|
So we left ourselves
|
|
Alone.
|
|
|
|
Our words
|
|
Might suggest otherwise,
|
|
But our actions
|
|
Are what's shown.
|
|
|
|
We share
|
|
Electromagnetic waves
|
|
|
|
But it might take
|
|
A million years
|
|
|
|
For massless particles
|
|
At the speed-of-light
|
|
To connect us to our peers.
|
|
|
|
We curse
|
|
Our WiFi connection
|
|
The moment
|
|
We lose reception,
|
|
|
|
But it takes some time,
|
|
And a few Doing Fine's
|
|
Before loneliness
|
|
Gets your attention.
|
|
|
|
We cognitively
|
|
Know this well,
|
|
Yet our bodies
|
|
Still cannot tell.
|
|
|
|
The modern man
|
|
In a tribeless land;
|
|
Evolution
|
|
Is confused as hell.
