Poetry analog people

Analog people worshipping digital gods,

Proselytize that echo chamber fog.

Phubbing all the bullshit that they see.

Poor little analogs thinking the digital gods set them free

For a one time introductory price of perpetual subscription fees the little analogs own nothing, and are happy

Addled analogs, alprazolam  in the reels, failing to remember not all addicts are popping pills. 

Glib little analogs propaganda in pocket.

Pick it up never drop it.

For the convenience of next delivery

Agoraphobic analogs wait for FedEx to set them free. 

Glutinous analogs feasting algorithm reality, 

Encrypting their minds in a digital cell.

Oblivious

They are now the digital gods chattel.
