Poem: Disconnected

No more
is human connection
genuine
Dipped in thin layers of truth
stretched
molded
Across fake smiles
practiced
in mirrors
clouded in vaped
hopes and dreams
Lost
in half-breathed breaths
stuck in lungs
constricted
by consumerism touting
worth

As God to the godless
masses
like pigs
to the slaughter
for needless
profits
Preaching expenditure
to zombies
who drool aimlessly over screens
and knows no bothers
As the world crumbles
from left to right
catching fire
overnight
The only connection
in this life
are wires to walls
and catacombs underneath
