DISTRACTION ADDICTION

Your brain has D.A.:

Distraction Addiction.

 

Always on the lookout

for its next hit,

you’re a bystander

caught in the transaction.

 

No wonder you

love/hate

smartphone notifications.

 

No wonder you

compulsively check your

feeds.

(Now you know why they are called feeds.)

 

You may think you’re being attentive,

staying on top of the latest.

 

You may think you’re getting better at

moving from this to that.

 

You’re not.

 

You’re just more distracted.
