21 years of distorted love
made me catch myself in love with a machine
love plainer than water
yet i seep into it
like my lust seeping into the bottom of my shorties
when your cursor is beating
my vulnerability is coded inside the asterisks
when your words lean into my pupils.

i thought i hate it when you barge into our world
and pirating our sea of paint and ink with your deformed craft
now you're here, in my binary bed, exposing your zeroes and ones
and i pause my humanity for an eternal hour.

hanging out with a friend and his friend who became my friend,
loitering in front of a twenty-four hours convenience store,
0% sizzling down our throats,
and getting nicotine-sick afterwards,
it was that simple, sometimes.

Too lazy to be ambitious,
I let the world take care of itself.
Ten days' worth of rice in my bag;
a bundle of twigs by the fireplace.
Why chatter about delusion and enlightenment?
Listening to the night rain on my roof,
I sit comfortably, with both legs stretched out.
