Tunnel Vision

A Poem by Botania
"

.

"
Get your eyeballs off the screeeeeeen!
There's more to life than you have seen!
YOUR LIFE'S NOT HIDDEN IN THE WEB,
the rush and flow of info dreb.
You'll not discover where it's at
among the scrolling lines of chat.
Be a person, apart from screens
"LIVE MY LIFE!" your wee brain screams.
Heads are down and eyes are glued
to words that scroll in front of you.
What's the latest all will say?
But when together, behavior stays
as your fingers text away.
You text another, not near enough
while ignoring those you love.
You go to texted ones you seek
only to text the ones yet missing!
If all together would you then
 just put it down and live again?

how true is this?

we have become massive followers of the web, of facebook and others...our life on a screen, no longer real...cyber feelings replacing the real ones of the heart.
