The Screen
The Screen
Behold the screen that shows us how to live!
Such tiny little dots dictate how we
Measure ourselves against a narrative
That doesn't belong to us. A holy
Combination of shapes and colours that
Distract more often than inform. We sit,
Enraptured by the promise of escape:
Our lives rendered in technicolour sparks.
There's something very telling in the truth:
We've never been as glorious as this.
