Wasting whole lives on tiny screens shiny

What’s our species doing here
and ‘here’ is now ‘being where’?

While our human brain humongous
now scattered on screens shiny
(devices which grow like fungus)
our intellect stuck tiny

Critical thinking frail
Listening response deadpan
Suggestions captious, stale
Shortened our attention span:

“What again was the question,
did you ask: Where’s the restroom?”
