Bikes without pedals,
shoes with faux laces,
zombies with cell phones
invading our spaces.
in being alone
without someone crying
“Oh my god, where’s my phone?”
All-over body sprays
when our odors are scathing
I’m sure were not meant
to keep us from bathing.
With once-a-week shots
to control all our cravings,
we hope that the side effects
will not have us raving.
A.I. gives answers
requiring no thinking,
and leaves us all much more
time for day drinking.
Social media will tell you
what you want to believe,
while the truth lies somewhere
between all who deceive.
Now cars without drivers
park better than you,
so with all this free time
what will you do?
