Technology, full speed ahead
“Embrace the future” they all said
Faster cars and wider screens
No-iron shirts, oven self-cleans
SmartPhones put us all in touch
Letter writing? Not so much
But then progress reached its peak
Losing jobs week after week
Robots on the assembly line
One laptop replaces nine
We thought tomorrow was our friend
A friendship that would never end
But how could we have been so blind
Technology’s left us behind.
