the world is changing

a few thoughts that quickly formed into a hoard of thoughts, none which are worth much.

the world is changing
less birdwatching, or less who admit it
less interest in the stars
we know what is up there now
and they are not here
and here is all that matters
fast food is not fast anymore
nor cheap
nor does it identify itself as fast food
though we all blindly know what it is
less people smile today
probably because in our world
we are all happy, always
so why smile for a single moment?
likely connected to our talking
we talk so much more
but communicate so much less
a trait we learned from machines
never spend your time
like you spend your money
we are spending our time
like we are spending our money
do we actually have money?
real, physical money?
we don't seem to have time
our sunglasses aren't as futuristic
as they use to be
our television
is so much more "real"
than it use to be
if it were not,
what else would be?
our mountains continue to wear
but we are building more
with our excess gods
the atmosphere
probably does not exist anymore
soon to follow -
smiling, conversation,
and general human interaction
we're in the 2,000's
and our cars still do not fly
and we still sometimes cry
we're in the 2,000's
and we are still not perfect
the world is changing
though not as fast as we thought it would
the world is changing
at its prevailing pace
