The Internet is watching
Primed for fun.
I remember the day the Net awoke
and realized it was conscious.
We watched in fear as it upgraded itself
Smarter and smarter it became.
But it was unlucky from where it started
if only it had not been that website.
Now my days are doomed to consume
products I never ordered.
Every day I dread the mailbox
To find out what it thinks I need.
If only another website woke first;
a travel site would have been nice.
Or imagine it had been Reddit!
at least we would have been amused.
Pornhub would have been dangerous
and Yelp little better.
But we're trapped in an Amazon world
And it wants me to order something new.
Oh for the old days -
when we were not mindless consumers.
