Attention algorithm
Everything wants my attention
They can have it
It's not mine
I will sell all of my assets
To appease
The rich online
I will look at what you want
I will watch it as I cry
I will give you all I've got
So you can train your ai
I am just a human being
Inferior to the bots
So I will keep watching
As my attention span gets lost
And I will never find it
In the essays far too long
In the scroll that goes forever
Or the ads that just go on
As my own intelligence
Slowly drips down the drain
I will be complicit
To all of your mind games
And I try to avoid them
But I always crave
The dopamine algorithm
The infinite escape
But when I do escape there
I am not in real life
My body's getting older
But I left behind my mind
Oh well
I already lost it
So let's just scroll
One more time

Don’t worry I I not write this with ai, I am very anti ai over here! The poem was (somewhat) about ai so that’s why I tagged it with such, sorry for the confusion, I added anti ai to the tags to hopefully clear that up but I see why you would think it was. Thanks for the compliment though!
