A poem about how everything seems to be automated and how difficult it is today to raise a complaint without finding an automated response in the way of discussing these issues with a human being.

Dissatisfaction

 

I write an article

It gets declined

I ask why this rejection

A reason refined

 

Every time I seek an answer

I get an automated reply

Are there no real people?

Nobody to reason why

 

I am simply trying to write

Articles of which I enjoy

But automated machines

Reject, dreams simply destroy

 

This feeling of automation

No real people to argue or curse

When all I wish is to write

Something in rhyme or verse

    So true. Everything is automated now days, which at times raises my frustration to a pinacle.

    very true post. I hate the phone banking or automated emailers because the metallic voice never understands our needs or emotions. Thanks.
