A Computerised World! Poem by Ramesh T A

A Computerised World!

Rating: 5.0


Everything is digitalised and controlled by computer;
Man controlled by machines machine rules man now!
To compete with machine man needs energy strong,
Without which he becomes ill and is thrown out of race!

This is the fate of man brought about by himself here!
Is it called civilisation and is this the way he has to live?
Poet is a free bird liking to dream and enjoy as he pleases;
But now poetic tension builds up before he sits before screen!

Thought process turns into verses of words on computer!
Poems are churned out to keep himself ahead of others
By the publication of his works as fast as machine works!
This has become the routine for all poets world over now!

Which is functioning fast – man’s brain or computer machine?
For the fast people it is a boon but for free birds this is a bore!

Indeed I agree with Marilyn - posting a poem on the world wide web is the easiest and quickest way to be read...Nice subject Ramesh for a poetic debate.

I guess we can do it the old way and write with pen and paper then find a market place in a magazine and send it off through the mail. But, it will not be on the World Wide Web. We have have to make a choice. Good topic! Warm Wishes, Mairlyn
