The Veldt is a short story about a family that has new technology that lets whatever you think come to life. The father bought this for their kids in a room because "Nothing is to good for our children," he said. He loved his children so much that he spoiled them. The children imagine a safari jungle image and the parents were in it. At the horrible end the parents died because lions came and killed them. The kids didn't know that their parents die because they didn't know it was real, but the technology was so advanced it made everything real, and it's technology that made Mr. and Mrs. Hadley to have a tragic death.

| | A dead mind A dead investment A dead technology- That is what it is is'nt it? The news is that China has fifty two missiles- Turned towards India. What is the 'use' of these idle missiles? They are all dead are'nt they? Will 'frightening' ever become a 'use'? Will 'frightening' ever become a 'STRENGTH'? Missile is nothing but a dead technology is'nt it? A dead technology from a dead mind. A science without its wisdom. Man without attaining his 'WHOLENESS' through wisdom can- only invent dead technology. A technology developed only to kill people- How else can we call it?

What this poet is trying to say in this poem is that technology that does bad things is 'dead technology'. The technology that was in the story "The Veldt" is 'dead technology' because it can lead to horrible things just like what happened to Mr. and Mrs. Hadley. This poet is saying that there is no point to have 'dead technology'. She is saying that 'dead technology' is technology that has bad purposes such as killing people. Missiles are used to launch at countries and when it hits, it kills people and at the end of all this people are dead. Humans can't live without technology, but people should invent useful technology instead of 'dead technology'. Humans use technology in everyday life and can't survive without it, they need it to cook, clean, work, for school, etc. These types of technology is useful, but technology thats harms people isn't.
