The Grass is Greener

by Lea Tonin1

 

Cars flash in brilliant beams
Computers whir in silent streams
crystalline technology
just the latest thing to see 
 
Surrounded in these sights and sounds
resolve disolves the very ground
buy today and pay next year 
The only deal is now my dear
 
Beware the shiny pretty things
they take from you your home and stings 
temptation's next to naked greed
vigilance is all you need
