yesterday —
some good lines,
some bad lines
it collected about
twenty views
twenty-five if
I’m lucky
before Algo the
Assassin shot it
dead — there would
be no funeral
no alligator tears
from Coach
no apology letter
from a Booster
no better luck
next time
from some bored
nommer
just profound
SILENCE —
the lovely peace
of Better Internet
birds, flowers, spring
sunshine
a rainbow of clapless
anonymity
beautiful bliss of
happy ignorance
maybe a distant
teasing tinkling
