The Ego Trap
facts and numbers
have's and have-not's
recited
to impress in a list
displayed
look at me
what i am
i am not
defined by post counts and vague exotic locations
here I am
sometimes I build myself a new shadow
while reality waits outside the login window
on return,
mind stalls,overloaded
by clocks left to wait, too late
for defragmentation; deterioration
spreads to the finger taps.
