Scrolling

Poem about technology, society and life

Mindlessly scrolling
Through social networking sites
Through life
Coming to the same old end
FoMO
Anxiety
Depression
Mind-numbing zombification
Time ticking
Fingers clicking
Living through a screen
Connected
Yet detached
Measuring self-worth
On the likes and shares
Of people who don’t really care
Scrolling scrolling scrolling
(Loading…)
Time to wake up
And smell the coffee.
