Behold,
I give you
my finest gift:
free choice
Now choose!
I give you a kitchen knife.
Will you cut your bread
or kill your brother?
I give you a library.
Will you study Socrates
or browse a best-seller?
I give you Internet.
Will you culture yourself,
discover the world and yourself,
or kill time?
Will you navigate
in search of deep roots,
or surf the surface
to tell everybody about
your tasty dinner?
Will you choose truth or trivia?
What is important or what is “fun”?
Will you give your gifts to the world,
or your selfie to the world?
Will you dance to a different drummer,
or a drum-machine?
Your choice is your truth.
