I find comfort
in the cold glow
of the screen.
On the other side
lonely people talk
to the camera,
entertains me
for a moment
I feel less alone
when I watch them
I feel less bored
when I'm bathed
in this glow
Boredom and loneliness
are very important
elements of life
But technology
take this away
from me
Like silence
and hunger
that invite
music and food
I want to be bored
I want to be alone
So that creativity
and a desire to connect
can spring forward
We are robbed
of our creativity
of our tribe
Addicted to a
data driven algorithm
that commodify
our humanity
Tuning a profit
each second we spend
wasting our life
