FIND INTEREST
A SCREEN POPS UP AT ME, ALL THAT YOU WISH TO BE AND HAVE
Items, hairstyles, bedroom doilies, trinkets for the walls
I beep and the card goes swipe
My hand last night was trying to the right to the right, his face did not look right
Profile doesn’t suit
How to increase mine? is this the meaning now?  How we spend time?
Will They be forgotten like algorithms dismissed into non trendy? missed the A list?
Capitalisation of products get a channel be an influencer of state and mind
To follow a fashion
Am I in style? am I in style?
Hands of the clock sets firmly on mature
And I roar into nature as if the clouds above could hear me
They can do this no more!
Those passed on
Those who had wrong done to them
Those whose only apparent sin was and is colour of their skin
Can’t laugh or make mischief with the new world of technology
Cant’ pick up that rhythm
After sky screaming and music banging out to hit the clouds sides
With a Be Bop and with clout
Their it is.
The words on lips as if by campaign
We share all as one we share all as one and the same
As humans to activate, pursue and plight keep pushing on until these terrible wrongs
Become what is right
In law and in Justice
With a blessing and wish that it is swipe left for a YES to an us to uniting against all that is unjust.

I'm not quite as advanced with you in using my debit card, Aisha. I don't swipe it. I insert it in the device that reads it and key in my numerical password to approve the payment. I don't have a credit card having got into debt with the last one I had. You're right, of course, about the pressures the media exert on us to consume. Even though I'm White Caucasian, we definitely have that in common.

Do you ever watch Louis Theroux? He has some programmes on BBCiPlayer at the moment and I like him for his strong sense of right and wrong and opposition to fanaticism, irrespective of the form it takes. Trevor McDonald charms people. Louis Theroux questions what they do and say.
P.S. When you use the word 'plight', do you mean 'plight' as in 'plight your troth' or 'plight' as in 'bad situation'?
If you mean the latter, I think you need to put something like: As humans to activate, pursue and relieve plights...etc.

The relentless advertising and commercialism contrasts well with this question.

Am I in style? am I in style?
Hands of the clock sets firmly on mature 
And I roar into nature as if the clouds above could hear me
They can do this no more!
Those passed on
Those who had wrong done to them
Those whose only apparent sin was and is colour of their skin
Can’t laugh or make mischief with the new world of technology

and I can acho that last call

With a blessing and wish that it is swipe left for a YES to an us to uniting against all that is unjust.
