There was a time
when folks listened,
read the profession,
it was a respectable position.

Nowadays
the hustle & bustle
of the drones
leaves us
feeling like
we’re ******

Do we even know any poets,
are there any left,
does anybody know
how it feels to be real anymore?

Why roll another joint,
we’re already ******
by a techno-society
out of touch
with humanity.

Without the poets,
where’s the love!
