Tomorrow, Tomorrow... Will we love you, Tomorrow?
Real Poetic's: Year 2033 Poetry Challenge
2033… where will we all be?
???
Orbiting our green earth
Mortals travel…dripping with gold…
Low gravity motels…
Buying whatever can be sold.
???
Vertical farming at its best
Less pests and diseases rife…
Precious soil freely bears more fruit…
Packed cities relish life.
???
Births each millisecond…
Exuberant cheering most times…
Dreaded death skulks ’round us
Grief and regret begrimes.
???
New I.T. inventions…
Human connections such a cinch.
Tech used for good or sin…
Wars break out so often, we flinch!
???
AI assisting us…
Or will it be ruining life?
Feeding, tending, playing…
Or controlling us like a knife?
???
Post apocalyptic…
World without electricity?
Subsistence farming then…
Rough years hit domesticity?!
???
Time flees… we vainly chase…
One decade’s time, what will we see?
Heartache… hate and despair?
Or love and kindness running free?
???

"My tears need a minute to find the edges of my face. If you'll please excuse me." The sarcasm stabbed into Juliana’s heart. Antonia glared at her from the pit of the Lyceum as her student fought to hold back tears that had nothing to do with the pain in her fingers. “You’re better than this, again.”

Feels like this is where we could be in ten years!
Very good 😊💕 As fast as my time is moving it will be here soon! 😉
At the rate we are going, AI will have un mining caves for minerals to farm something or other. We better wise up....too late, Ai wins. Hope for love and kindness.
Ouu, I loved this one. This was tightly written. Beautifully done!
The sense of impending doom was sooo intense! Loved your take on the challenge!
I love pieces like this that challenge you to not only think about what it will be like in the future, but to perhaps do something about it, because it is our choice. Great job, Angie!!!
So many thought-provoking lines. Our World is moving at such a fast pace I sometimes wonder if we're really sure of the destination we're going
I hope it’s better but I don’t know. We need to believe it will be.. Excellent entry Angie! ☺️👍
Ange this is so cleverly done. I guess only we can decide which route to take. Sadly the powers that be seem intent on the destructive option 🤍
