Self-tying Shoes


I  woke up  this morning-- It's Thursday not Tues--

to be greeted with news 

of self tying shoes

which gives me a vague sense of the blues.


We moan and complain of  vanishing jobs

but in truth we're really all  slobs

who prefer  to act like snobs

and avoid the working  mobs.


And  should such shoes become a fave

along with self-driving  cars for  every knave

we  soon may  face a problem grave :

What to do with the Time we'll  save?



Plus,  there may soon be no one about  this to complain--

even if by then the world hasn't  gone down the drain--

because  we'll all have bought  a self-thinking  accessory brain 

to do whatever work is left but never tire nor feel pain.
