Technology , is it a friend or foe?
Does it help or mislead you, would you know?
Is it good or bad?
Do you consider it rad?
Do you use it wisely or just for show?
Technology has made great leaps and bounds
It has enhanced sights, it has refined sounds.
It has linked people closer,
But has brought loved ones farther.
Its influence in our lives so astounds.
“Netizens” they’ve named our generation,
The net our constant preoccupation.
Our world revolves around it
Different world to inhabit,
But how we use it , that is the question.
There are two roads before us , this I say
One will us right, the other astray,
Your choice, there is no question,
Should lead to your redemption,
But do you know for certain, which way?
The net has much as use . No doubt. Yes, indeed.
It has eclipsed books as knowledge’s seed.
It should then be used wisely.
Log not for leisure only.
Gamers, chatters, net dependents, take heed.
