Virtual vs Real

 The virtual is nothing compared to the real

It's an illusion, fake

We talk on the video, see another face

Smile our selfie smiles

All the while looking nice

But there's no flesh and blood in the image

That we see

When we have tears to shed, we're all

Smiley smiley

It doesn't work that way

True to ourselves we must be

That's the only way to be

Or we could go insane

Where AI gets to rule

There would be no children's school

The voice that comes through cables

Could never tell old fables

Let's hold our hands dear ones

Let's hug and kiss and love

Lets hear the music flow

From throat chakras that glow

Lets see the rosy cheeks and feel the softest lips

This we know can keep us sane

And make us more humane
