There's a new meter that measures
The value or worth of anything.
Based on hits, and on-line searchers,
Google's is the final verdict.
The giant brain at internet's core,
Is fed by millions of mouse clicks.
With each click it gains in power
Gaining wisdom on what the world thinks.
It has eyes that scan the whole world,
And its ears where sounds emanate.
All this in bits and bytes is stored,
Which are matched in turn to patterns make.
The more it knows what people want,
The more it is wired to their thoughts,
The more it tracks things that leave their trail,
The more it comes closer to being God.
Omnipresent, due to the Net,
Beseeched by million supplicants;
Omniscient, since all knowledge leads
To, and through, its databanks.
Omnipotence, just a step away
From controlling the fates of people.
Google will control, we will obey,
In bit-sized chunks, give our lives over.
