Off Course

by Heath Brougher / January 6th, 2019

Technocracy has overtaken our lives—
Mankind’s experience has forever been altered.
Human evolution has been thrown off course
by a ceaseless tantrum of distraction.

We must teach ourselves to concentrate.
It’s the only way to destroy these silicon vampires.
