Must be monotonous
To persistently gaze at an infinite void
Between white spaces
Disillusioned by the information they dispel
Misled by catastrophes they embark on
On human soul and mind
So I gaze at you, unexpectedly, with empathy and pain
Why have you been unable to declutter your conscience from this space?
Why do you enslave yourself every passing hour?
Why do you sow these seeds of poison ivy, each day?
Why you isolate yourself from your spiritual destiny, each night?
I see you climb down these euphoric cyber pipelines, like a burglar
Clasping tightly on to these tall futile walls of binary dungeon
Unable to sanitize the mental space
I ask myself, when will you ever learn how to differentiate?
When will you learn how to prioritize?
So I watch you from the sidelines of this digital divide
My roots grow thicker and wide
Entrenched deeply into human suffering
Incapable of holding mindful conversations
Or thought or human sentiments
So I watch you from the sidelines of this digital divide
On how your life is invaded
By the sagacious algorithmic invaders
On how, you, have no control over it
So I grin, in apathy and disconcerted agony
Painstakingly, cataloging answers
To questions, you never asked!
