ITS LIFE,JIM

by NEIL ANDREW:VIRGO - Not entered

ratrace begins its morning well
streets heave beneath the human swell
a million drones to  work take flight
homes not to be seen till start of night

synthetic worlds with corporate air
polished teeth and moulded hair
nature banished no scene no green
just buzzwords and a computer screen

envy those of centuries past
no astro turf just real grass
a landscape full and rich with green
no concrete plastic beasts  be seen

but now i finish,sign off my screen
just binary digits where once i'd been
stated impressions of this morning
now lunch is over and the boss is calling....

Reason for writing:

    
a bad start to the day......
