Passive in Revolution



grief sharpens us
turns us into the ghosts we are
slap happy in the world 
you can't survive living

i have adjusted my expectations around you
i have retrieved the significant bytes from previous dialogues
i have attributed values to the 1s and 0s used in each string
i have typed these symbols in the text box [$#!?]
i have anonymously answered three questions about myself 
that only eternity can hold 
i have become incoherent passive in the revolution 
as predicted by television 
i have telescoped my thoughts to the smallest diameter
i am winking at you across the borders of declension 

have you had enough water today 

right shift + control: delete your notions of absurd
it's taxing to be a poet
in baseball season. and without. 
amidst a pandemic. or without. 
we write about the moon. 
but it's not like i really want 
to end up alone there.
