The Poet--Contraptions


Contraptions
Science brought us useful things...
found ways to raze harsh bastions.
It helped to make life easier...
till they devised contraptions.

Take cars for an example...
in past they were a snap to drive.
They added all their gimcracks,
and we can’t figure out the jive.

And, then there is the telephone...
that any idiot could use.
And, now phones have so many apps...
we do not talk, we search menus.

So, make them prove their next adaption
won’t morph into a damned contraption.
