Flying Lemming
The 'Poem A Day' Project - Day 25
I’ve got all the latest gadgets, all the games and toys surround me
My Wii, X-box and Playstation all set out uniformly
A whole wall full of DVD’s, several racks full of CD’s,
Reclining electric vibrating chair to tilt and put me at ease
The coffee machine with the little pods is sitting on the side
A flat screen digital television that’s 60 inches wide
A music entertainment station with I-Pod connection bay
The latest computer system that I updat every day
Leather sofas and expensive art scattered here and there
Deep pile carpet warm and soft laid everywhere
Everything I could need or want my money has got for me
So why do I sit and cry because the place feels so empty

I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings
Maya Angelou
very true...things that own you not you own them...in chase of new high-tech novelties not lo forget about really important things...
welcome to the side effects of greed
