<u>Living in the Time of Distraction</u>
<u> </u>
Digital age on a rampage
But the mind’s eye doesn’t mind
Boredom is as bored doesThis content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
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.
