Faces

poem by: John Prophet
Written on May 24, 2023

Faces
fixed.
Screen
glows.
Mesmerized.
Addicted.
Hours spent.
Narratives
flow.
Minds filled.
Warping.
Altering.
Molding
perception,
attitude.
Civilization
course
correction.
Puppeteers
pulling strings
making jump.
Controlling
opinions.
Raining
from the
cloud.
Unsuspecting,
glowing faces.
Oblivious.
Fogging minds.
Seeding
discord.
Muddying
waters.
Mind
controlling.
Global.
