As our lives move forward in modern times
Machines are beginning to rule our lives.
The further we go forward
The more the computers aid us,
To make our lives progress faster.
But why do we need to move faster?
Surely life is there to be enjoyed.
We are getting led into a life of haste,
But do we have more time to ourselves?
No that does not happen,
We apparently need to be rushing elsewhere,
To where the machines take us.
What we need to realise
Is that the one thing
That machines cannot achieve, is compassion,
And that is the one thing
That will keep man ahead of the machines.
If man will only slow down
And think once more,
Think once more for themselves,
And bring that compassion to the world.
