A sigh puts an end to
The recurring depth
I die into death
Repeatedly

Scratching an itch
with a swipe
A scroll
A like has a toll
This life feels so whole!
Attention is money
You cannot share

You cannot care
i love u i swear
Egos swole af
Mans was dyin lol

With a square in my hand
and my head in the square
and my mind dimensionless
you cannot care,
scratching an itch
To forget

When I up and look around,
startled by sound,
Infuriated by nothing but
numb to fury
Embarrassed I couldn’t
survive except synthetically

At least hypothetically
I care
that I’ve swiped
the hours left
my heart right in
the sauce of anxiety
devoured.
