Alteration

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Jan 26, 2021 

Alteration.
At first,
subtle.
Subtle
alterations.
Tweaking.
Synaptic
changes.
Outside.
Outside
influencing.
Refocused
sculpted
thinking.
Changes.
Thinking
changes.
No going
back.
Technology
transforming.
Molding
synaptic
pathways.
Different.
Divergent
ways of
thinking.
Pace quickens.
Great divide.
Old vs new.
No going
back.
Old dies
slowly away.
New,
constantly
transforming.
Stability
lacking.
Structures
cracking,
losing resonance.
Civilization
unrecognizable!
