Ironic

In America we are:    
 
So connected we are disconnected  
So #Woke that we are asleep  
So enslaved that we think we are free  
So busy chasing money that we are spiritually broke  
So convinced we are true believers in our religions that we are brainwashed  
So wrapped up in politics that we are puppets  
So fixated on our destination that we forget to love the company we keep along the way  
So hungry we eat food that it is fake and dangerous to intake    
   
I hope all of the words above are an enlightening tonic  
but for me it’s all just-Ironic
