Lost Generations





Lost Generations

Marching backwards towards the cliff,
with cell phones texting hieroglyph,
their minds absorbed in servile things,
while puppet masters pull their strings.

Slave indulgence feeds the worm,
that grows inside them like a germ,
stealing focus on what matters,
replacing truth with idol chatters.

Consuming habits read the scores,
while blind as bricks to coming wars,
illusions swallowed by the herd,
accepting crimes without a Word.

Consume, consume, the world is bleeding,
lifelines broken, now receding,
the bonds with nature all but gone,
reality fades, all withdrawn.

But when reality settles in,
they turn to spirits, wine and gin,
medieval habits tie the noose,
on sterile minds now so obtuse.

New program downloads to their thoughts,
that twists their thinking into knots,
scrambled tricks so out of joint,
repeated often makes their point.

Orwell’s chapter on human race.
with program screens, not far from face,
believe, believe all that you see,
but prisoned minds cannot be free.

About this Poem: For some, technology has become a self-imposed prison where reality has all but disappeared. Spiritual connection with nature has been completely severed and all their attention goes into their self indulgence and cell phones. They lose all sight of what really matters in life and instead wall themselves off into a false reality. Cell phones and the internet have evolved the old TV programed conditioned minds to the next phase of propaganda and turned people into a species with an attention deficit disorder.

I stopped watching TV in 1996 but when going over to someone's place, I found that the TV was always on and if you were in the same room with someone trying to have a conversation, the other person would turn his head every few seconds towards the TV to make sure they were not missing what was coming from it. The programming was unbelievable...

I've been TV free for 25 years (and counting) and can proudly say, I have a mind of my own. Unfortunately, I'm also isolated because most everyone else is still trapped in the program even if they don't watch much TV because it comes from their Cell phones now and it is in a much more compressed and accelerated state with an added feature...people can't get their fix fast enough which creates an attention deficit problem and irritability when they don't get things fast enough. That transcends into daily life...

If stores survive this current lockdown madness, go into a store and watch them. After 30 seconds, if they haven't found a sales person, they’ll start to display anger at not being served and say something like, “I’ll take my business elsewhere!”. Imagine what would happen if everyone stopped using cell phones…try it for a week. By the way, I don't have a cell phone either.
