the future is now

in the future,
you won't carry money,
or cards,
or checks.
you'll put your eye
up against
the scanner
and the invisible brain
of technology
will do the rest.
we won't have to think,
or leave the house
much.
we won't need a husband
or a wife,
to have sex.
there will be no need
to talk,
because everyone will know
our thoughts
before we say them.
food will be injected
into our necks.
books will
enter our ears without
reading.
everything will be known,
nothing
will be unlearned.
the world will be at peace
as everyone will
have everything they need.
only a miracle
can save us from this fate.
