Technological Obsession

-------

so much is relied on,

displayed through,

living within,

technology..

in this time of the 21st century,

this tiring decennary

this is a good thing,

this is a bad thing

as is anything, in its own way,

though, technology, has a seemingly bigger impact than you'd think

one that's not always gratifying and considerate;

successful and worthwhile

while you can communicate a few seconds across 12 hours,

these digital pixels are coming out of many eyes

while your brain can discover might-be-useful knowledge,

artificial intelligence just stole your girlfriend and half your bitcoin

while your time can be saved by the multitude,

many minds are filled with "storage full", "loading", "ugly"

while you can call to see if Timmy's alright,

your privacy is questionable, valuable - costs money

follow for follow, can you like this please?

what's your wifi password? fuck you cryinggoth_ thot

swipe left, eyeglasses from bluelight

skip this ad, depression is aesthetic

technology, while a great concept,

a useful, revolutionary system,

so many are grateful for, can't live without,

insecurity is stalking your internet history,

half of your career relies on monetization,

many of us have a technological obsession..

technology can be excessive,

have control
