Brainwashed
social media everywhere you go
Fast moving time the world is so slow
Twitter Facebook instagram TikTok.
Sometimes you feel like a wound up clock
They paint your thoughts in borrowed hues,
A script to follow, paths to choose.
Echoed voices shape your mind,
Truths rewritten, everything is realigned.
Endless scrolling, numbing sight,
Trapped within the neon light.
What was yours now fades away,
Replaced by noise, a mind at play.
A silence waits beyond the screen,
A world unfiltered, raw, unseen.
Step outside, let stillness grow.
Remember all you used to know.
Children played in the street, it was fun
Now look what technology has done.
We’re zombies to the world of Apps
The was our brains under techno maps

"It's 10 in Tuscon! We all know what that means... It's Time for Midnight Snacks with your man, Gerald Gee! Ready to spend the night together? Me too! I'm full of snacks and can't wait to regurgitate them all back into your hungry ears. Crack a brew! Pop some corn! Anything to get ready for one hell of a show where the talk maybe cheap but the words cut deep...
