What’s it called when you put your fingernails
in your pocket after you peel them off?
I can’t be seen but pls comment on my post,
c’mon, c’mon, okay.
Sold?
Follow.
Check DMs like licking poison
between a drawing of Jesus and
house number 33.
Get a buzz,
say ‘let’s fucking go’ and
take some selfies.
Do you believe me?
Post it.
Pause to chew your chemical protein,
lick a turkey sandwich,
post the post-life bird in mayonnaise,
eat the feathers and the veins.
Post when the most people are online.
Post when you’re post-based.
Post when you feel like it.
Do you believe me?
God just wants us to be okay.
