This Is Your Brain on Technology

Neurologists have diagnosed
a loss of concentration
As gadgetry rewires our brains
for byte-size information.
Forget Recherche du Temps Perdu,
Ulysses, Moby Dick…
Our atrophied attention spans
will leave us much too thick!
So next time, give the Net a miss.
Unless, of course, you’re reading this.
