Dear Little Man #2: Hero from The Past



Dear Little Man,

How do you do, love?

I wonder how the world you live will be
Some decades for today

Look at what's going on now

when most people living in the virtual world
when most people like to hangout with the screens
when people impress someone from their feeds

when people easily throw their opinion and they suddenly invite the judges called public

When they playing victims to make other people victims

When the contents spread rapidly throughout the entire world, injecting the viruses to the human brains... and someone's killed, but at the other part of the world they proudly say, "it's going viral!"

When women no longer make up to date her crush, but the viewers of their youtube channels

What is wrong with them?
Nothing wrong with them, baby
As it has become a mainstream, an ethics

The wrong is to those who never click the "sign up" and never clock the "log in" buttons
The wrong is to those who put down their phones and leave them on the bed while they're away
The wrong is to those who talking eyes to eyes with cups of coffee in both their hands
The wrong is to those who deactivate their facebook account for forever

Or let's just call them the outliers

Oh no baby... i am pretty sure you have a better name to call them later

Maybe you would call them The Heroes

Inspired by my daily views and the most brilliant satire, a series people nowadays must watch on netflix titled "Blackmirror". It will be definitely a slap in the face as you can so much relate to the sarcastic scenes, yet a very thoughtful stories to think of by the end of your day.
