Hive

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Jun 08, 2023

Hive.
Hive
mind.
Group
think.
Massaging
thought.
Like molding
clay.
Ceaseless
motion.
Shape
after
shape.
Mind
after
mind.
Duplicated.
Master
artisan,
molding
tools
in hand.
Zeros
and
ones.
Etching
the mind,
soul.
Free will
co-opted.
Master.
Made to
heel.
Follow
the script,
narrative.
Inundated.
Nonstop.
Screen to
mind.
How
zombies
are born.
How
free will
is lost.
