Just think about it

A world without hate, oppression

Or misery and any distasteful moments

 

That make us squander what we have

Break free of the evolution of technology

Just get rid of all the bad

 

There is no need for a focus on something so diluted

Something brought to help our lives

But has caged us in confusion

 

We bring the social media into our house

Forget to say hello to our loved ones

But yet get irritated and shout

 

If we’re interrupted in the slightest way

This damn technology is wasteful not helpful

And kills our entire day

 

We can hide behind a screen and write a candid post

Get one million ‘likes’ but still be left for the wolves

 

And the knives of the comments

The just-give-ups

The stop-hatings

The disruptive rhythm of somebody who truly, is, frustrating

 

 

So I plead to make this world more human

Plead for more one on one

No more confusion

 

And added

No keyboards or typing

No car accidents or losing best friends because they were fighting

 

Over Instagram

Beautiful pictures belong in a gallery

Not in the palm of your hand please no more banality

 

The most common posts

Too much information that distracts

 From our lives and the words we speak, hidden facts

 

Drama and poisoning of the minds of our children

Nudity, drug use

Promotion of addiction

 

Where does it start?

Where does it end?

Can we please change to before internet began?
