Techno

The machines can speak
and they are calling your name.
Be a hero and save someone,
or sit back and watch the play.

Cellphones can be your world,
unless you prefer the computer
to a wireless and compact device.
Say the password to brighten life.

Today will be your day
if you can live long enough,
outlasting mother and father,
to wish away the hate.

You are the technopath,
and communication is your game.
Save a life but remember
to preserve your own first.

    This piece communicates well that some just lock themself away from the world and live in the own patch of cyberspace surrounded by their favourite gadgets and gizmos. Human contact I believe is necessary for us to have any chance at surviving beyond the current course of history. Another thought evoking piece by you and I wish you the best in this contest.
