Modern Psychosis (2010)

 

sorry if i seem a little vague

only

i’m

not

quite

all

here

really

my light’s a little dim

there are bits of me missing

a hole where the whole used to be

scraps of me are left scattered around the world wide web

relegated to dark corners on servers

dispersed throughout the internetwork of computers

leaving

fragments

of

me

tucked away

on facebook

myspace

blogger

flickr

deviant art

well you get the picture

only you don’t

do you

you don’t get the whole picture

you only get part of the picture

it’s not as though you can google me

collate the missing bits

staple me back together

make me whole again

(careful not to staple through any vital organs or non-vital but extremely useful organs)

you see

or don’t see

that

i

am

a

fragmented

man

A man in portions

particles of parts

spread out like some chips of shell

waiting for some kindly soul to put this poor humpty dumpty back together again

that’s why i appear

 a

little

vague

blur

not quite myself

bits and pieces

i

really

need

to pull myself

together

sometime

soon
