Fighter pilots and
Now, drone operators
Are trained on simulators
The lines are
Deliberately blurred
Between a video game
And a war
Friends now berate each other
Shrilly, on social media
In a way they never would
Face to face
But as the Buddha said
Habit makes character
And so face-to-face interactions
Are also poisoned nowadays
As the level of discourse
Sinks daily
It is moot
Which is the worse evil
The nuclear bomb
which annihilates your relations
Or social media
Which destroys your relationships
