Fatal Uploads Inc. (A Poem)

By Anton Martin Smith antonmartinsmithwrites@gmail.com

It’s True.

The mind is a funny thing.

Left to itself – it will move to destroy itself.

It will chase easy dopamine fixes, forgetting food, sleep, others.

And that’s exactly what they try to encourage – those techno feudal overlords.

They are feeding the beast until it devours itself whole.

They’re making the physical world seem ‘quaint’.

So that one day people will click ‘yes’.

To the final fatal upload.

Fuck that.
