The Division
A meditation on the harsh implications of the tech driven sharing and contractor economy.

Swift comes the day when each one stands
above the apps to act as heads
or under them, to act as hands.
Who acts as mouths but those who eat?
And who can eat but those who earn?
But who can earn when all the work
is concentrated in the head
and labor, due to bots, is dead?
This, the question we must ask,
or not, and see mankind divide —
on top, the minds who work in pride;
below, the hands the promises of tech denied.
