The Age of Mass Distraction
Deviation Actions
Literature Text
while we affix our little screens
life goes on around us
oblivious in selfishness
it seems we've missed the bus
what happened to humanity
the joys of interaction
alone together we've become
the price of this infraction
where once was laughter and surprise
now lives monotony
attention given to our things
forsaking you and me
we are the sum of what we see
instead of who we are
technology the hypocrite
on how we've come so far
if this is what the world's become
an autopilots test
going through the motions like
the data we ingest
I think it's time we flip the switch
so children understand
the universe cannot be held
within a single hand
life goes on around us

I must say that is quite true. Trust me I should know as I'm on the computer all day, but I wouldn't have anything to do if i wasn't... I think that's exactly what your point was, isn't it?
