Modern Medusa


Modern medusa is technology, 

A digital abyss holding the gaze of stone faces,

A transfixing limitless potential.

A plague of oblivion.

 

She has no selfish intention, 

No menacing notion,

As she did not invent herself. 

 

Hands designed her, 

Graciously supplying humanity 

with an outlet to abandon expectation.

 

Modern Medusa is an anti-muse; 

Humans seek her convenience over

Existence.
