Narrative as a Thumb Navigating a Smartphone

Somebody                           somebody                        somebody

                          out there
loves you
                                                                 thinks you’re funny
                         wise
          an astute political observationist

                                     but not here

                                                         right now

                        back—look! why can’t you love like they love?

refresh

                       back—look! baby goats doing human stuff. You will literally die.

refresh

                                return
                                               to where I just was
                                                                   just in case
somebody missed you

                                                                  browsing.

                          I’ve got the whole…b u f f e r i n g…

                                                                          world beneath me.

Including you.
