The Matrix

The Matrix is a digitalized world where nothing's what it seems
All the things you think are real are really only dreams.
The world that you live in is only an illusion
It's enough to make any person feel full of confusion.
Every person on this earth was born inside a pod
According to the Matrix, there isn't any God.
Computer agents dominate, making us their slaves,
Some people become ready to be unplugged, but others aren't that brave.
The real world was badly damaged when the machines and computers fought,
now to only certain people the truth must be taught.
For there is one man who can save us from the powerful machines' control,
His name is Neo, he is the one, he has an important, predestined role.
First he had to be unplugged, then he had to believe,
Things he thought impossible were things he must achieve.
His crew leader, Morpheus, taught him the rules
That were necesscary for him to face off the computer ghouls.
His girlfriend Trinity helped him too
Their love for each other proved the oracle's words were true.
The agents followed their crew around, ready to silence and kill
All of the unplugged people who knew the Matrix wasn't real.
One member of the crew betrayed them
Several people were killed, all because of him.
To draw out Neo, Morpheus was taken
But Neo and Trinity got him back, and the computer agents were shaken.
Neo and Agent Smith fought to Neo's death
But one kiss from Trinity gave him back his breath.
Neo came back to life and fought the agent better than before
Eventually,they became scared and ran away, but he knew he'd be back for more.
After all, there's two sequels ahead
And Neo's not going to stop until the machines are dead.

    Good rhyming and rhythm to this- summarizes the movie quite well- something a lot of people I'm sure could benefit from since the movie itself isn't easy to understand.
    There is a philosopher who names himself Drunvalo Melchizedek (www.drunvalo.net/) who speaks of "one reality" yet there are numerous interpretations of reality.
    There are some that believe the next pole shift will push us into the next level of existence and it very well could be technology centered (moreso than now).
    Just thought you'd like the reference
    I think predictions come true in part because people have confidence in the outcomes- a self fulfilling prophecy theory is something I studied- that's what I think of when you mention the Oracle.
    Nice job!
