I can’t stop checking
things,
Pull down, refreshing
things,
Back and forth, assessing
things,
Obsessing over every-
thing.
Updates! Seduce me!
I’m pining for interruption.
I close my eyes and dream of
growing numbers in red circles.
13, 28, 1 and 3,
was I always controlled by this need?
Information, you taste so sweet,
honey-dripped notifications on repeat.
Inform me.
Like me.
Distract me,
with commentary.
Affirm me.
Romance me.
Save me,
with fantasy.
I can’t stop checking
things,
Pull down, refreshing
things,
Back and forth, assessing
things,
Obsessing over every-
thing.
Never isolated from the
access to more.
We are trigger happy,
but miserable.
LOVE this x
