…modern life…

In a Nutshell

A modern pocket genie,

an app for every need –

wisdom at a thumb-swipe,

boredom relieved,

texts and selfies,

twitter and tweets –

Freedom!

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee dom!!!

Narcissism

Flatteringly backlit,

bump proudly on display –

mark the coyly covered tits,

face arranged as inward daze,

though destined for the public gaze.

Celebrity gestation is the name of the game –

Narcissus made the rule –

but no Echo, only Ego dwells in this shallow pool,

worshipping the image, reflecting back the same.
