O Welcome To This Brave New World! Poem by DM W

O Welcome To This Brave New World!

Rating: 5.0


Internet fuelled rage;
Instant phoney connections;
Social media
Of incoherent loners,
Spammers, narcissists,
Impersonators and trolls;
Relativism
Corrodes human relations.
Indifferent text culture;
Psychic distortions;
T.V and fast food junkies;
Fractured consciousness;
Neon lit billboards
Permeate city limits.
Endless labyrinths
Of garish colours
Bleeding into each other;
A cacophony
Of novel sounds on a loop;
Everywhere now seems
To be a microcosm
Of the worst aspects
Of modern America.
Infantile voices
With no sense of perspective;
Fragmented meanings
Without clarity
Or purpose; now we're adrift
Because the sacred
Centre of things is missing.

Nicely penned Dominic and brought a smile to my face I must admit. And yes, its a million miles an hour out there or used to be. A full score and richly deserved good sir.
