From Many To One

I am attempting to convey through poetry, how the brain and its abilities, has changed in so many people.

From Many to One

By Craig Childers

 

The brain strives to expand from one to many

In a society of abundance and plenty

 

There was a time in our recent history

With so much innovation and creativity

 

Music was driving down various streets

With new styles, voices, and unheard of beats

 

Semi conductors began to launch their flight

Permeating adversity through its plight

 

Technologies were expanding in all its ways

Allowing all of us to extend our days

 

Some of them saving us dollars and pennies

While the brain was travelling from one to many

 

But somewhere along our times way

The brain became stagnant with little to say

 

Road blocks to music and its automation

Made talking not singing become revelation

 

Innovation began to comfort its recliner

As the rich get richer with a life much finer

 

And no matter what media you direct your mind

They’re all identical amidst their ratings grind

 

And brain atrophy begins its assault

While delusional pons become their cult

 

Harvesting and distributing their relentless fears

To indoctrinate others for support and its cheers

 

 

Chaos ensues and to no one do they abide

While they reel in the vulnerable, who are anxious to side

 

In so many places, like father, like son

As their brain as director, goes from many to one
