We have sunsets
but color
wasn’t enough
we have
man/woman
man/man
woman/woman
woman/man
but it wasn’t enough
animal/man
man/computer
bcuz
aforementioned options
were not enough
we have poppy fields
but heroin
wasn’t enough
an empty bottle
wasn’t enough
coke in the nose
wasn’t enough
smoke in the lungs
wasn’t enough
tab on the tongue
was not enough
so we began to mainline
multiple identities
via social IV
severed
we may never disconnect
sweating
shaking
writhing upon
cold tiled floors
aching for more
our
blood is rusted
by what
we so lust for
virtue & vice
how many friends
how many likes
who we have caught
in this virtual net
deifying
social ID
bedridden, scratching at IV
please unplug me
set me free
