BAD TECHNOLOGY: a lesson through poetry

all PCs crashed this year
E-mail contact was lost
cell phone distress signals
capsized text-messaging
an iPOD smoldering
radio service killed
first, massive, deadly floods
next, more rains caused landslides
plenty of dead people
electronic burden
convenience killed


I created this priceless piece of literature in a recent English 12 project. It is a "found poem" derived from 2 newspaper articles, one about a plane crash and the other about new advances in aviation technology for this year.
