Privacy Lost Poem by Morgan Michaels

Privacy Lost



In the future, no one will use their birth names-
easy enough to suppress core info,
it will give no one agita to coin personae
such a ruse now useful, even essential to survival!
Allusion to biological family bogue,
the reproof to computer-stored data will become
files of identities, separate as bank accounts;
firms will invent egos for the sheepish.
Checks will be writ by differing entities.
The meanings of 'fake' and 'other' will wax vague.
Men will become women, women, men.
Surrogates will wed and at a distance breed.
Fertilization 'in vitro' now the requisite
Natural history will favor only the brave.

Frightening thoughts made even more so by the possibility of becoming our reality. Surrogates will wed at a distance and at a distance breed Will falling in love disappear? ! ! A loss of privacy but also a loss of personal control.
