How unusual, how peculiar it is for one to engage another face to face.
What an archaic notion!
Contact. Breath. Sight. Sound. Touch.
Ah touch! The absurdity!
Those that fall into the antiquated notion of this "human connection" will all but be left behind in the past - decaying into the obsolete.
Connectivity at one's fingertips is the now!
What kind of naive fool would trade it?
The now - lustful, delicious, instant gratification.
Connection to anyone, anywhere - all from the comfort of one's home.
The boudoir now is a shopping centre, restaurant, movie theatre - anything to delight the user’s fancy.
Amongst the safe space of home, one has all they could ever desire at the click of a mouse, the touch on a screen.
Friends instantly. Movies. Endless shopping. Even sex!
Ahhh sex.
Now you can even have sex all from home.
Satisfy any fetish, desire, yearning at the click of a button.
Porn upon porn upon porn galore!
A smorgasbord of choices to tantalize every sense for the comfort of the home.
Why would any sane person venture further?
The need for actual interaction is gone.
Safe inside one’s bubble, yet plugged in!
Interconnected 24/7.
Hardwired finger tips to touch pads, keyboards, mouses.
Rewired brains.
Red. Blue. Green.
Micro-chipped and hot of the factory floor - millions everyday!
We produce so efficiently that there is surplus enough for all!
Even the starter products start working quickly enough.
Granted, they remain in the beta-testing phase for some time.
They tend to be full functioning at about 20 years.
And don't worry; if they break or die we have enough surplus for a speedy replacement.
Production at its fastest.
No assembly required.
From the day they are manufactured they begin their programming.
As we move forward advancements are sure to ensue.
Surely in just a few years their efficentcy will have doubled, tripled even.
20 years functioning will be achieved by 10. Then 5. And so on.
The screen is now our face.
The soft perfect hum of devices will soon be our only sounds.
LED lighted eyes and downloadable hearts.
We will (and why would we not?!) become wired selves.
Such a silly notion, human interaction.
