Walk Away

poem by: John Prophet
Written on May 03, 2025

Walk away.
Siren’s
song.
Resonating.
Gently
whispering.
Soothing.
Cooing
persuasive
messages.
Molding
mind and
manner.
A.I.
omnipresent.
Enveloping.
Nature,
human nature.
Turned.
Slowly
turned
to something
different.
Subtle
alteration.
Change in
direction.
In time,
arrives
in a
different
place.
One
determined
not human.
Machine
guided.
Walk away.
Put down
the technology.
Less consumed
by it.
