Inattentive
Sorry, it's just a poem
Berners-Lee or Bernays? Shannon or Geertz?
We all crawl the web; who wove it first?
Techies and dreamers, or lackies and schemers?
Hackers, Crackers, or Bitcoin Believers?
Freedom now fettered with the greed of deceivers
Nevertheless, we stay
Concerning…
Never discerned was any contention
To how we became the ad man’s possession
Aswim in the æther of ads and attention
Spiraling the drain into dim definition
Vibes vexed, veering harsh
By shallow semantism
Wrong heads, impure hearts
Run rampant pedantism
Pretention, hypocrisy
Populist mockery
…
The pendulum returns
…
Au contraire…
We're crafting this Void into which we all stare
So what if we all stopped?
