The Threat Is Real Poem by Waseem Sherif

The Threat Is Real



-1-
The truth's in my genes
eating me from the inside
hungry as it is
consuming like a blight

the truth's never true
deceiving the weak minds
artificial truth
in dystopian times

-2-
it is coming forth
like a virus, in terabytes
crawling its way out of
ev'ry systematic life

get ready to shut down
now you're OFF, not alive
all systems check
you're officially digitized

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
just a few on-the-spot lines which i never intended them to be about what they ended up being about! !
still, identifying oneself by technology IS dangerous.
