The Take Over


Lost in a world without you,

Your just miles down the road

Living in your own world

With only technology to keep us together

But what happens

When that very foundation that kept us together

Rips us apart.

 

Technology cannot be relied on.

It’s not something to be trusted,

So why is it something we use every day?

Every second of every minute we sit in front of our screens

And text on our phones

 

Waiting

Just waiting for something to go wrong

Not for the robots to take over

But for it all to just stop working

For it all to stop functioning,

Then what would we have?

 

Nothing.

No you,

No me.

 

We would have nothing.

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” - Mad Hatter
