Is that my eyes or the screen? Either way something's - oh wait
Wait a sec can't miss this text
Ring snap click tap
I still have work - I can work
Between
These
Lines
Of text
(I’m tapping my feet)
“Yes, I agree with what you’ve said.”
(Darting to TikTok)
“What do you think about this?”
(And my eyes are blinking over NYT LIVE HEADLINES)
“Uh, oh yes that sounds good.”
(And back in my hands)
Life fits inside screens
Pixelated dream scenes
Refresh for new drugs
I start to use my middle and ring finger to double tap because I'm afraid of old age
Likelikelikelikelikelikelike
Me I swipe, type and like
I like you, everything!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh! So great! : )
But not my life it’s same
I went to vsco China, a bowl of noodles shared by 188 friends, summer 2018 Shibuya
so I do feel I am different!
Different in brain not body
No changes to my neck
I’m still me after this trip.
Is my camera off?
