Performativity
Brands extending from banned to
Once again now arriving
And clockwise from
Fashion, style, food, and drink
To total skin and wellness.
Autoplay stays stuck on taciturn
And comes with a side of sticky rice.
The perfect hail Mary
Blush cheeks, dark red lips, pale skin
Eco-effervescent and probiotic.
Scraping data from websites
With dual extended playlists and
Spun up by self-curators
Flexing flux-dripping platforms
Heat maps for drilling.
Some white girl, pretty
Future focused
Taking it in the app
To maximize her engagements
Shaping my world in real time.

Tatjana
Tousled thunderous mischief-making clouds
A double rainbow to the west
Like kids kissing in the crosswalk
Mouths dealing with big new teeth
The barista provided oxygen to me
Says she saw lightning, “Two of them!”
Tatjana, she’s pretty
With daddy’s valet’s nose
And mommy’s interdisciplinarity
Her arc is on shuffle
Brisk, golden muscles
Smoking hot thighs.
Later that night
All alerts high
All responses elevated
She’s like
I’m like
Viewer discretion advised.

Live Traffic Update
Stay clear of disabling fire
Make plans for safe shelter
Clemency is out of the question.
Forget famine, slave trade, wars and genocides.
The greatest human upheaval in history occurred
When hundreds of millions of people migrated
From movie theaters to on-demand internet.
Healthy spending is good for you.
And with digital coupons at our fingertips
And deep space preinstalled
The kiosk cannot be ignored.
A life unmonetized is not worth living.
Poetry is just so many words
One-trick-ponypersonship
On any one-horse slaying day.
Not everybody looks like their name.
Ask your personal wealth partner
Ask your doctor
Ask your rabbi or priest.
Saviors playing straight man.
Nature may be timeless but the size of the
Drunken wolfpack in ill-fitting sheep's garb
Has almost nearly doubled.
