Does it make you more human?
desiring speed
craving beauty
mortgaging futures
out of vanity
do you think,
“does it make me more human?”
turn your head
to the shiny instead
it invades your bed
takes over your dread
you never said,
“does it make me more human?”
everything delicious
isn’t good for you
many nice things
would kill you
not everything new
has that ring of truth
look out now
it’s calling for you
Does it make you fly
does it make you swim
does it take you from
the heights to the depths
does it make you more human?
