Muse of Calliope

All day long, we inhabit our caves 

Shut up inside throughout our days 

Much of our life is passed in this way 

 

far too long, we\'ve had our phones 

Now it\'s so easy to be alone; 

It\'s been this way for as long as I\'ve known. 

 

Maybe I just romanticize the past, 

But if I lived when life wasn\'t so fast 

I think I\'d have been a bit more relaxed. 

 

Before FOMO was a thing, 

Before cringe like Skibidi, 

Before IRL was a necessary phrase 

Before we wasted hours in a brainrot daze 

 

Maybe I would\'ve discovered poetry earlier on; 

Maybe I\'d have published a book, written a song 

This generation is an experiment, what\'s gone wrong? 

 

i\'m chronically online / 

is this is a sign / 

we need to get with the times / 

blur machine and mind /
