The gates of hell open with Face ID
Loaded down with every app 
Soaking up time in totality 
Echoing pages attention wrapt 

Scrolls of alerts and notifications 
Attention splinters at the sound 
Outrage at news of downtrodden station 
Opposite voice in my neighbor enemies found 

Each app clamors for power 
Turning struggle into hashtag slogans 
Our thumbs warrior for hours 
Truth by clever lies broken 

Close the gates of only in brief 
Despair at Technology-in-chief
