A poem about the effects of media on youth.

Cadence dance of boy-yard ring
tendency fought as rhythm sings.
Voice waves wash the sand
as time disappears from menial things.
—————————————
—————————————
Lost now in the things we say
forgotten once this very day
as rhythms grow to twist around
encircled by the words to which we lay.
—————————————
—————————————
Listen child come o-here now
rest and relax that mighty brow
for thought is far too hard to think
and freedom is what we allow
—————————————
—————————————
Do you, more or less, by the thought?
Thinking is not what it ought.
No idea brought forth by you
has given you what you sought.
—————————————
—————————————
So listen child to our care,
time is twisting through our air.
We control you ever now
sloth of will is our golden snare.
—————————————
—————————————
Deeper, deeper now we go
sleeper sleeping to the throe
death be soon to follow
as death be reaped from what we grow.
as death be reaped from what you sow.
