Transformations

poem by: E.J. Waling
Written on Jan 31, 2023

Transformations.
Nanotechnology.
Biotechnology.
Artificial Intelligence.
Acceleration.
Challenges.
Utopia.
Dystopia.
History gives
a clue.
Human nature.
More changes
next
twenty years,
than in
prior
three centuries.
Change.
Tension.
Human desire
run amok.
Virtual worlds.
Human psyche
transformed.
Augmented.
Old ways,
beliefs
discarded.
Purpose,
served.
Link
from past
to future.
Severed.
History
no longer.
Past
erased.
Trans human.
Loss of
personal
contact.
Strange
new world
awaits.
Digital
immortality.
Where
be now the
gods?
