Get Your Head Out of You Aaaaapple phone!


Get to walking

Not a lot of talking

Around these students, education roams

The most connected of all domes

Emory aren't we saying we are connected as a community

The world I am talking to you and your disunity

making way to overlooking any opportunity

we had to communicate as one and see each other as people

not some high tech device on our phones inside a steeple

trying to commmunicate to this higher being

knowing we are more insync with our devices blinking

than we are to the person right beside us and feeling what they are feeling

in this lonely technological world that is so connected

we are indeed isolated

from the very social beings that we are and should be.

PUT DOWN THE PHONE 

EXPERIENCE the awkwardness of loving someone you don't know

showing them that they are not ALONE!!!!
