socially distant
stalking socials
no true human connection

doom scrolling
past real and fake news

sinking further into despair
as the mother earth gasps for air

falling into the void
no light
no dark

an emptiness of space
between the nothing
and the light

a fleeting thought
share it

no one will read it
no one gives a damn anyway

socially distant
stalking socials
