Seeking to amplify |
|
Power in all senses |
|
Man creates devices |
|
That change relations of his world |
|
In changing he fails to see |
|
He's now become |
|
A slave to devices |
|
Who's charm he's succumbed |
|
His bias altered now |
|
From sense to sense |
|
Sound or vision tested which reigns as best |
|
And so he fails the test of unity |
|
Integration of the whole creates awareness he shall see |
|
Oh things that we've made, changing our lives |
|
We've come so far, electric light |
|
Measure the day, lengthen the night |
|
We can make our war, without fight |
|
In alphabet we've shifted sound to words we see |
|
No more the sound of voices has effect on literacy |
|
Our weapons are extensions of our nails and teeth |
|
Are amplifiers of the rage that seethes |
|
The photo makes museum obsolete |
|
For treasures are now exposed |
|
For all to view in complete |
|
The phone has shrunk our world |
|
Down to village size |
|
To talk the neighbors |
|
Who just don't see our eyes |
|
We rule nature |
|
A fragmented whole |
|
Enlisted science, to take control |
|
But where's our future |
|
What lies in our hands |
|
A technocracy, or integrated whole |
|
Can we arrange a world |
|
That's filled with harmony |
|
Eliminate pollution |
|
And keep our people free |
|
Must life be calibrated |
|
By technocontrol |
|
Can freedom be maintained |
|
By thinking of the whole |
|
Our patriots will vanish |
|
Like ghosts of the night |
|
Unite the world as one |
|
Will be our holy fight! |
