Digital Darkness

Bits flying by,
technology running wild,
signs of the times,
binary files.

Everyone's life,
a string of zero's and one's,
one glitch causes strife,
confusion forms.

Those who don't understand,
left on the sidewalk,
insane laws they demand,
they think they can bring the net to a halt.

Frag the weak,
hurdle the dead,
turnin up the heat,
their lives filling with dread.

They are techno fossils,
we are digital children,
to us the electronic world is real,
the keyboard is our friend.

Persecuted for our knowledge,
we hide in the dark corners of the net,
spreading information among colleges,
causing the ignorant to sweat.

This is the age,
of digital darkness,
the ignorant think we're strange,
creating their own mess.

We refuse to change,
that is why we are hated,
you can't snuff out the knowledge flame,
content refuses to be censored or rated.

We live in digital darkness,
but be prepared,
one day there will be a renaissance,
the ignorant will be running scared.

But for now surf the net,
and be prepared,
challenges will be met,
learn or run away scared.
