Just wondering how they lived, my ancestors

Using capsules to the moon and back

Carrying tablets and pads and phones

Heard they used to dial numbers and wait

Until the other person picked their call

What a life!

 

Saw some of those antiques today-

Ferrari, Lamboghini and Maybach-poor sods

A snail’s speed it must have been.

Hospitals used a thing called laser

Which they called a major breakthrough

 

Just called a friend now by thinking it

Gazillion digits floating in my digital bank

Upgrade and update in milliseconds

And we’re nowhere near where we want to be
