He knows all the satellites by name
He knows when every laptop crashes
He has cheats codes for every video game.

Oh no, I didn'tstagram
Don't want to share my selfies
Don't want you to know what I ate last night
Or what I did on Roofies

I twitter at your followers
And no, I won't "Follow you back"
The only people I'll re-tweet, my dear
Have all the things you lack

Won't go in One Direction
So hate on me, make a fuss
Don't think they'll oust the Beatles
Just because Harry does

Oh, what's a SnapChat?
Don't think I have that
Oh wait a minute, I don't care
Cos that app's neither here nor there

Don't think I'll find an online mister
Or reply to a "How about we.."?
Yes, I'm cyber challenged
So said my little sister

Everyone's a super model
But I mistrust Facebook photos
You probably photo-shopped your flaws
Or whitened your teeth with risottos

#nofilter equals #somanyfilters
Enough with all the fake
Because in this unreal world
This is more than I can take

So, take a step back
Post a candid shot
Don't hang around for them likes
Show them what you've really got

Make it stop.

You are the heat between my thighs
You’re the salt thrown in my eyes
I did not realize you’d be the one I miss
I set you aside and turned on my side to:
Drift to shift, to hit or miss, to sleep and dream
And start the rift.
Fluttering of eyelids; Nightwings to Dreams
I did not realize
You’d be the one I miss.
No need for this:
Electric kiss, cyber drip; cyber rain
And digital pain
Shackles galore promises more flesh to rent
A white empty cold plastic comfort
But no flesh will render me asunder
Will we ever go under, you and I?
I wonder
I didn’t realize oh Dear
I did not realize you’d
Be the one I miss or long to kiss
To wish for this:
No more hit or miss
Please
Reach through your cold plastic box
Knock on screen
Knock knock
Let me in

Singles in your area are dying to meet you.

You don't know them, they don't know you.

Knocking on your backdoor, peering in your windows.

They've surrounded your house.

Come out NOW.

I will rub an extract of evil over the papers,
I will dispatch my feelings through the electric wires.
When
The anger and fear beat the inside of me,
When it is cold
And empty.
My abstract castle is unbreakable,
Inside its tower there is a smell of a wild smoke.
Fairies and mermaids
do not exist here.
Their false ensemble left a deposit
On yellow pages of "News" and "Truth".
Cocoon-rooms, detonator-heads,
And a den of the hungry monster inside you.
Intrigues are weaved by the city,
Their dream is
A blind chase after a dollar.
I am counting the floors of a building,
I am burning this life.
I am spitting on a free ticket
To a world raging in a gray palette.
We continue to stir mirages,
While time aimlessly runs,
While the burning math flies over the petrol canister.
A bitter moment
Will not become sweeter with a handful of coins.
I will go to the darkness,
Which is inside me,
To experience light.

— The End —
