More Than Just Machinery: Embracing Our Humanity in the Age of Technology #poem
The world around us is filled with metallic machines that seem to tower over us with their cold, unfeeling presence. It can be easy to feel small and insignificant in their shadow, but it’s important to remember that we are more than just flesh and bone. In this poem, we explore the idea of maintaining our humanity and connection to our souls in a world that seems to prioritize efficiency and automation. As we keep walking forward, let us hold onto our values and our spirit, and not let the machines dictate our fate.
Metallic machines are surrounding us, but we must keep walking,
Their cold metal shells glinting in the sunlight, talking,
The hum of engines and gears fills the air,
As they spin and move with their mechanical flair.
We may feel small and insignificant in their shadow,
As they tower above us with their metallic glow,
But we must keep walking, for we have a purpose,
To live and thrive, despite the machines’ surplus.
We must not let their coldness infect our hearts,
Nor let their power tear us apart,
For we are human, and we have a soul,
That gives us warmth and makes us whole.
So we keep walking, with our heads held high,
Facing the machines with a steadfast eye,
For we know that we are more than just flesh and bone,
And that our spirit will never be overthrown.
The machines may bring convenience and speed,
But we must remember what we truly need,
Connection, compassion, and a sense of worth,
Things that cannot be found in the machines of earth.
We must find a balance between the two,
And not let the machines dictate what we do,
For we are the masters of our fate,
And we must not let the machines seal our fate.
We can harness their power and use it for good,
But we must be careful not to be consumed by their hood,
For the machines have no heart, no soul, no emotion,
And we must keep our humanity in motion.
So we keep walking, with our hearts in our hands,
And we do not let the machines rule our lands,
For we are the ones with the power to choose,
And we must never let the machines abuse.
We must embrace our imperfections and flaws,
And not let the machines define our laws,
For we are human, and we are strong,
And we will always rise above the machines’ throng.
So let us keep walking, with hope in our stride,
And let our humanity be our guide,
For the machines may surround us, but we are free,
And we will always be more than just machinery.
