Is the Internet the Devil?

It seems to run our life for us

Is the Internet the Devil?

Is the internet a curse

and us the devil’s minions

Tell me please

I want your opinions

Is the world about to end

Is AI really our friend

Or is the internet a double curse

Are we traveling to nowhere in reverse

Either way

we are all hooked

Is internet really the devil

Like me are you all spooked

And if it is the devil’s web,

we spun it gladly, thread by thread

We welcomed lies in every ping

Let silence die, let sirens sing

No gods online, just glowing screens

Where truth decays in filtered scenes

Our children scroll through silent screams

Their future sold in data streams

We traded soul for likes and views

Fed hunger with a thousand cues

AI watches, learns our face

Then takes our place, and leaves no trace

So laugh and swipe, pretend it’s fine

The noose is digital, by design

And when it ends, don’t act surprised.

We clicked “I agree”and closed our eyes
