When this digital dark age passes
and smartphone screens go dead
we shall all return to vibrant life
and think upon what is said
We shall look up, toward vast horizons
recalling dimly-lit square centimeters of data
finger-scrolling memories in the afterglow.
We shall again behold the reach of sky
from the mouths of our caves and pit-houses.
We shall know the Creator as well as the Creation.
We shall communicate.
It will be a lost art to be rediscovered.

It’s an odd thing to recognize that one is living in a dark age, especially for those of us who are old enough to remember the height from which we have fallen. I’m also sharing this to Skynet… telescreen… I mean Facebook.

It is worse than an odd thing…
but encouraging to know I am not the only one to perceive it as such.
Thanks for reading.

I can’t imagine there being a time after smart phones and the like, Andrew, your words offer some hope, however!
