The Transhumanist
Daylight doomscrolling-
Making alarm clock Alexa sing,
Praises of a mutant morning-
At home flexible working.
Fit bits and fidget spinners,
To make you inadvertent winners-
Never needing no blood thinners,
Pristine pastless sinners.
Grades,shades and degrees,
Of quickly quantifiable commodities-
Can we not have all the answers please,
A generation lost behind glowing screens and latchkeys.
