Machine

The machine says: 

Don’t compute 

Insert data 

Running numbers 

Synthesize 

Cold to the touch

Metal core 

Wires and cords 

No spirit 

Calculate 

Load…

No emotion 

Void soul 

Work is made easy 

Easy is made hard 

No tellers at the register

Orders filled online 

Digital realities 

Electronic lies 

Job once filled by humans 

Computerized 

Adding and subtracting has declined 

We lack the patience 

We ignore the delicacy of time 

Rushing to oblivion ignoring the beauty of small talk 

Forgetting the interconnected moments 

That unite us all 

Conversing with bankers 

Shopping at the mall 

Don’t compute 

Insert data 

Run the numbers 

Synthesize 

It's the technological age they say

This is evolution

Advancements is the solution

Have a life made of luxury

Love always, Esha
