These Computers!

Beside the mucky table typing,

On the sweaty keyboard riding,

With aching fingers shivering about,

And bloodshed eyes popping out

They work on these computers!

They work as students, clerks and tutors

Then slowly the screen starts flickering,

But they! They keep on clicking,

They click images, they click the text

They click folders and whatever next!

Now they are lost, into the band

Of those little letters at hand

No heed they pay to others,

Be it younger or elders

No wonder why don’t they hear us?

They work on these computers!

This is really good Amar! You have nicely captured a common theme that is prevalent in today's world, taking it a little deeper and have done so objectively. Yes computers are a window to the world with seemingly unlimited information at our fingertips. Sounds very liberating, yet this liberation can become an obsession which can lead to enslavement. A form of which often goes unrecognized. One of your best Amar!

I plead guilty to my computer obsession. I love my computer. I tells me everything I need to know and doesn't talk back. You captured me and the millions like me in a delightful way and I enjoyed this very much.
