Brain or heart?


 

Cyborgs are here

whenever we need them. 

Always by our side.

Someone is sick? They'll treat them.

Someone is feeling nostalgic? They'll teleport them home.

Someone misses a person they love? They'll give them the opportunity to meet again.

Someone is bored? They'll entertain them.

"They" are machines.

But how do they hook us into happiness?

 

They help us live, yet they destroy our lives.

We are blinded by false illusions

in which we control them.

An addiction, so strong

that hides the slavery 

regulated by technology.

 

Fake skins replace the sickness

with a new heart.

It pumps that blood of ours

filling it with oxygen of desire.

Infinite desire to have powers;

infinite desire to create a fire.

The core of the Earth explodes

within seconds...

As that bomb of 

unthinkable strategies 

is launched by e-waste.

Where did you machines, exile?

Are you again invading someone else's aisle?

Rivalry is us, isn't we? No worries.

Soon, it'll be over as you observe

how we disappear in front of 

your very metal eyeballs.

Jobs - gone, 

misery, poverty and slums - come

until it's absolutely dark:

Where no light shines through,

Where depression captures our souls,

And where nature is neglected;

completely forgotten.

Ciao Earth!

I'm sorry we didn't care about you enough.

I'm sorry money is all we think about.

I'm sorry it's over.

Hello senseless perfection.

We're too late to realize nothing is ideal.

We're too late to ignore the small flaws.

Because now everything is trash.

No humanity, no nature, no nothing.

Except e-garbage.

Planet, thank you though

for having us. It was splendid!

But that's what you deserve 

for your Kindness and Love - 

watch your children die,

committing another try

of an indescribable

suicide.
