Technological Unconsciousness

Let’s talk about the internet of things!

Microchips hulked out, grew wings

Twitter telling me why the caged drone sings

Automated fixations are just what tomorrow brings

Hearing minor autotuned chords

Deep embedded circuit boards

Instant messages comin from your home’s chairs and floors

All sorts of ways they can improve your days

Simultaneously turn your life into albee plays

Sayin the surveillance comes and goes

Your bluetooth is proof that friends and foes both see ya, goof

Google earth satellite zoomin in on your roof

Fetch your mail in a robe and you’ll look like a doof

And why ya gettin paper bills anyhow?

The new tech is here, so get with the now

It’s hip to be square if that square is a cellphone

Moore’s law begets tiny tech, i’ll never ever be alone again

Phone a friend, it’s the ten thousand dollar question

Too scared to be a rapper when the wicked wiretappers

Are most likely listening in

Are you root? no, seriously, are you root, dude?

If you are root you can address me in a stern mood

But apt-get your shitty attitude out the room

Or i’ll rm you into the trash like a broom

Machines are learning, are your ears burning

Profits gossip with everything lossless

Nintendo secret level or you’re fighting with the bosses

Cos skynet insists that its logic is flawless

(x2) technological unconsciousness

Your surroundings will surpass the turing test

Bitcoin, dogecoin, or coinye west

Young folks invest cos they’re hashtag blessed

Blaze up a doober in the driverless uber

The misstep recorded by the commuter computer

Then you hear as the central speaker system parrots

“passenger your punishment is five demerits”

But we need tech that’s holistic, not prescriptive

Each human being supported as uniquely gifted

Open access data helps us know ourselves better

Biomedical analysis for healthy go-getters

Goal-setters gamifying life’s big challenges

Turning bad habits into steadier balances

Find a next level you!

Choose what to do

Universal will to become shows vonnegut knew

Our brains are neuroplastic and our limits porous

So collaborative growth is really working for us
