The 23rd Century in the Greater Bay Area
Harrow International School Hong Kong, Kwong, Andreas - 13
Irish in size,
Swiss in wealth,
A new megalopolis,
Has risen in the East.
Fusing resources of land and labour.
Step from an airport,
Slip into transport
Swish! To the hotel
In a giant flying cell.
Under solar motors spinning on four separate propelling blades.
Spinning through 3D,
Holographic LED,
Targeted publicity,
Honed to your desires.
Trade and shop with cashless DNA-recognition technology.
Down below,
A sea of trees,
A zero carbon society,
Solar glazing glinting.
Unlearned - the 21st century plastic dependency.
AI porters multilingual,
Greet with silicon smile.
Sweetening the hotel portal
“Welcome -
Reboot in luxury and enjoy your stay.”
Neural scalp worn webs
Connect minds,
Hive consciousness,
Thought driven V-Reality.
Enjoy the GBA of the twenty third century.
