My Screen is Live

I’m a global, digital consultancy offering
Peer advisory network optimization 
Advanced back-office services 
And robust cross platform behavior
Both on premises and in the cloud 
Always leaning in with a trend line
Targeting viewing queues
From cryptocurrency miners with
Lunch buckets, smeared faces
To the behemoths and titans and colossi
In cloud service, credit cards, and entertainment.

Beloved by Reddit threads
I’m a recognized innovator in fully integrated solutions 
A juggernaut in the attention economy 
A darling among tastemakers seeking
A unified next gen media experience
A principal voice and mastermind
A driving force in advanced wave forms
And legacy infrastructure architecture
Leaping tall paywalls with a single code
Revealing the secret to breakout gifting and travel
Bohemian activewear and cellular bioresonance.

I’m a big believer in
Branded custom private label
Wearables, edibles
Tangible AI products
New Roth options
I heart vibroacoustic therapy
First thing I do is I sit down with the client 
And I say Look here’s how 
To do a chemistry read on Zoom
And here’s how to make it to where 
There is an “I” in team.

And so yeah
I’m not going to lie
Never in a million years arrived yesterday
It’s been a meteoric rise
People love to be critical of a breakout hit
But synergy doesn’t grow on old growth discourse 
You wouldn’t put an expensive sword
In a cheap scabbard 
I’m de rigueur
De ri 
Fucking gueur.

Imagine Your Label Dropping You on Valentine's Day

Same age as Jesus
When he was crucified
I aint did nothing wrong
I aint even reached major traction
Cinderella season cut short.

I feel like honestly
There are different ways
To kind of go about it
I killed a lot but 
Left a slew unslain.

Doesn’t matter how big
Matters how deadly I guess
Expletives was hurled
Put an S in front of laughter you get 
The forever chemicals in wrinkle cream.

So what I’m gonna fucking gonna do
Is I’m fucking hoping to just 
Stay aspirational and reframe the loss
Respect the franchise, contemplate 
The future of pop and my place in it.

                                 Buzzy Tells

Stardom is existential success premised on immortality 
We took it like a right
At the corner of Hollywood and Highland
In the spotlight’s synchronous orbit
It was win the coveted award or
Risk the skull and crossbones stigma: weak box office.

But now the nod is Tinseltown’s trendy metric
More nods means more red carpet looks
The real RealID in La La Land
I’ll be very honest 
I have snagged already six total nods
And a ton of season remains.

Poetry Found

In Today's Los Angeles Times

Why power outages do more
economic damage than we think,

Why Tesla shares rise
even as profit outlook sinks.
