Where im from

Sun, 11/04/2012 - 12:51 -- RyanH

I am from extraordinary times.

I am from the loud dial tones of the internet to Wi-Fi filled homes.
From cassette players to MP3 players.
I am from 2D TVs to 3D TVs.
From 5 inch blocks we called cell phones to Apple iPhones.
From VHS players to Blue Ray.
I am from floppy disks to CDs.
From paper maps to GPSs.
From Atari to Xboxes.
From gas cars to electric ones.
I am from hand-written letters to messages sent insistently through the air.

I am from extraordinary times.
But soon I know these extraordinary times will pass me by.
Until I am just yet another victim of the ever changing world
Where I soon will lay to rest
And where I’m from becomes unrecognizable.
