A Trap

From the Stone Age 

To space exploration

Human’s ingenuity continues

To explore and create 


It is an ongoing adventure

To an unknown destiny

As there is no endpoint

To human curiosity 


But there is always a danger 

When greed knows no end 

Profit has no conscience

Ambition can be turned into tyranny 


With the advent of artificial intelligence  

We may have created a Frankenstein monster

A minority may take control of the majority

Loss of individuality can occur 

 

As we fall into a trap built by ourselves

Of unknown depth and width

And if we continue to challenge God’s design      

A dystopian future lies ahead
