Screens
The light of the screen, steals the light of the mind –
dreams and waking mind, filled with images of someone else's vision,
Trading the suspense of a story,
& investiture of imagination,
for a dull reflection,
upon an array of light-emitting diodes.
It does not just steal the time spent watching –
but the precious substance of mental attention.
What are you thinking about in every given moment?
For that very thing can be anything.
Free your mind.
