The Screen
The screen
That presence
So widely seen
In our homes
Offices,
Carried in
Our hands
Worldwide
In every land
Mobile
Or desktop
Laptop
Servers galore
In their memories
They can store
Anything
And they do
Spit out
Whatever gets
Put into them
By us
Coming thru
Our hands
The minds &
Hearts of man
That screen
That influence
I have seen
Thick or lean
Large or small
Speaks & calls
To us all
Thru the light
Of that flickering
Screen
Images of good
Images of bad
Calling our names
Playing their games
With everyone
Angels & demons
Portrayed in fantastical
Images
It’s really so sad
Because both do exist
In the midst
Of the lives of man
So be careful what
You allow
To be fed into
Your mind
Look for truth
Elsewhere
& learn
to wisely turn from that
Invasive Screen!
