PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Hey, did you get the new iPhone 6?

Of course you did, everyone did.

Our lives revolve around technology

Its like a drug this generation can’t quit.

It screws up the mind

But people are too busy to notice

Everyday beauty passes them and they don’t bat an eye

The little screen is more important, right?

What if I told you that it wasn’t?

That this 50 likes on Instagram will soon be irrelevant.

That it won’t matter who commented on your post

Or that nobody would care about a pic you took at lunch?

I won’t lie

That used to be me

Hovering around outlets

Staying where I had really good WiFi

And not caring about the world

So, what would you do?

If I told you the phone wasn’t important

You’d call me crazy

Or worse, categorize me as a ‘hipster’

All because I see the true beauty of the world

And until we can get this plague of touch screens under control

I think I might be the only one.
