Falling

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Apr 09, 2023 

Falling.
Curious.
Everyone
sees. 
Circling
the globe.
Light
speed.
All know
what they’ve
been told.
Instructed.
Mesmerized.
Brain screen
interface.
Pulsing,
pounding
flow of
data.
Brain
squeezed,
kneeled,
pushed.
Flowing
narratives
used to
control.
Simplicity,
done.
Complex,
exponential.
Hard to
handle.
War for
 control.
Hard to
keep
up.
Falling
behind.
Out of
control.
Turmoil.
None
to
believe.
