Zachary,
Thanks for the feedback. I very much enjoyed the way this poem grew, if not for the crit it would still be the not-so-intriguing original I scribbled in my notebook. I'm afraid the last stanza is the result of my cynical outlook towards the future, I worry if I change it to adhere to the futuristic-ness of the first two stanzas it will come off as fake. I just have this lingering worry that as technology advances civility will diminish in lower class as consumerism becomes more and more dominant. Hm, maybe I can brainstorm and find a better way to get my point across however...
May I ask which lines you felt to be pointless? It would definitely help in the next edit.
Thanks for reading!
