The twilight of our civilization is in the shiny screens we spend our days staring at. Slowly leaking out the only good we’ve ever been capable of, intellect becomes nothing more than 1’s and 0’s. Pride overwhelms us as we watch more trinkets from others blinded by their own genius flood our once green world. We smile as they dismiss the truth of their inventions.
Money-crunchers and CEO’s praise god in thanks as they destroy the creation they believe he gave us. Life becomes pitifully small and valued less and less as we look to silicone for happiness and pass ourselves around like cheap whores. Independence and truth are lies and we sell our souls and our children for minutes, for seconds more of self-congratulatory destruction.
We have bought these lies and now cannot care. We stare at the illusion and call it reality. We watch life on a screen as the world dies. We cannot think because intellect cannot be found in the ether of the internet. We dismiss each other and ourselves and call it progress.
