Reflections while waiting for Carousel of Progress to start at Walt Disney World
Cyberspace is where you’re at when you’re on the phone. -John Perry Barlow
Waiting for the ride.
Waiting in the dark.
The babble of voices.
The building anticipation.
The sense of…
Flashes in the dark?
Illuminated faces…
Checking emails
Checking Instagram
Checking Snapchat…
Who commented
Who responded
Who liked…
No one notices the NOW that goes on;
No one immerses themselves in real experience;
No one lives the memories they’ll enjoy
Twenty years from now looking at
Digital photos on their TVs.
My smartwatch hums —
A Medium response!
My phone comes out of my pocket.
