My Not-Manifest Destiny
Resisting the Scroll
Like wind that blows fervently,
People’s attention comes and goes swiftly.
It seems like they care, but they don’t really.
*
Like thunder, noises magnify randomly.
The social media era creates a virtual reality.
It seems like you have it, then lose it suddenly.
**
Life’s meaning, I care deeply.
Scrolling over the screen shouldn’t be my destiny.
Tomorrow I shall quit, but wait—that won’t be so easy :(
