The Buzz at Zaventem!

Drones are hard workers; used to be

Think of hives and busy bee

Then the word took on new meaning:

To drone – a boring way of speaking.

 

But words evolve, new thoughts accrue

Now drones take flight and spy on you!

No longer seen as just a toy,

They buzz round airports* and annoy!

 

Surveillance takes on a new guise;

Remote-controlled, its roving eyes

Can capture everything we do

No longer safe. what can we do?

 

Though progress has its strong plus side

Not all is rosy; it can hide

A dark intrusive motivation,

So, I observe, with trepidation …
