Intermittence and Segmentation

31/07/18

Conveniently small
Extremely smart
A stalker in your pocket that listens to your entire life
That knows your every move

Right there
On your nightstand
There
It peacefully lays
Waiting for you to be fully asleep

It’s a diabolical weapon designed to tear apart society,
making everyone believe its a tool for never be too far away from your loved ones

It’s a mistake.

Distances increase, as well as silence and filler words.

The obsidian fragment has the sole purpose of deleting me from your head
Inserting billions of other things instead.
He will make you crave other images of the world

Other stories

Stories from far away

Not from here and now

Not from me

My stories are boring


You can talk to me
Yeah
While you talk to anyone else
All the time.
While you no longer maintain a continuous conversation
With anyone.
While intermittence strikes

Until you slowly go away
Until you end up ignoring me

Worry not!

He will be there

In your hand

While you eat
While you wait
While you travel
While you walk
While you cook
While you try to sleep
While you relieve yourself
While you dress up
While you work
While you love
While you are with me

Always

Because all of you are obsessed with it
You are obsessed with those parasites that leech off your time.

In this emoji-ridden world
The real plague is ambiguity

You aimlessly jump from one app to another
Pointlessly browsing on the menu screen.

Lock and unlock.
Type and delete.

Everyone seems to be possessed by it
Not looking at the screen for a second, provokes anxiety.

It’s all right, we are doomed to oblivion.

The next big extinction.

Unless

The battery is depleted.
