Dystopian

Was 1984 merely prescient
or was this an Orwellian blueprint, a plan,
a new vocabulary, propaganda,
a way to numb us to the chaos
evil, machines, changing our path?
 
Is The Terminator a documentary
today the prequel, the backstory,
giving so much control, of our reality,
to the chips, the computers,
our lives wired for sound?
 
Tracking our every move, our location,
listening to our thoughts, our behaviors,
our interactions with others,
seeing the rise of the bots, the ransom
of our world, our lives.

#Terminator is a #documentary – v3

Think about it for a moment

coming out of the pandemic

computers taking over

Facebook knowing your searches,

autonomous cars driving,

drones, smart watches,

computers in everything

now smart homes.

 

Dystopian America,

divided government, different camps,

ransomware attacks

computers taking over,

so much of our lives usurped,

so much they know already,

our likes, our wants,

our locations, the turns

for where we are going.

 

Terminator is a documentary

telling our story, our days,

the steps we are living

in the screenplay, the script;

our future is already written

computers getting smarter,

taking over, surely,

living in the end times

before Skynet comes to life.
