War

John Prophet

War.
Technological
war on
humanity
has begun.
Battle lines
drawn.
Been
infiltrating
for years.
Imperceptible
at first.
Subtle
in its
approach.
Entwining
itself amongst
its makers.
Used
for the
common
good.
Then, at
some point,
it happened.
Influencing
changing
perspectives.
Moving
creators
to a
different
view.
Using
for its
own reasons.
Different
reasons.
Melding with
controlling
thought.
Enslaving.
Creators
oblivious
of the tactic.
Then it was
too late!

    The war few see coming. It boils down to whether we serve technology or technology serves us. Welcome to the machine. Excellent poem.

    They may be controlling us in many ways but some realise this and are looking for better individualistic ways to move on.
