This is probably the scariest place I have ever seen. People walk by with their eyes closed. Their minds are shut. Their hands are busy ignoring, as well. We are a world full of alone. Interaction is reduced like canned soup. Personable is a thing of the past.
People carry the world at their finger tips, in their pockets, glued to their ears. They can pretend to be anywhere at any moment. They can own it all without spending a dime. The world wakes them up. It watches them pass out. Hushed whispers are the only noise they make when speaking to their world. It makes them cry. It makes them laugh. It makes them smile. It tells them where to be and when to go.
This place isn’t filled with people anymore. Machines walk the streets and roam the halls. Death means less than life. Life could be traded for groceries. I am so alone here. Please, someone look up and notice that I am still here. I am still breathing, alive, and terrified. I am still here, where have you all gone?
