These days I question
the impact I made on you,
glorious hive mind.
Did the algorithms show
more entropy than triumph?
Breakdown of a man
witnessed by 900+
people I called friends.
Will my face be forgotten
in your book of memories?
Twelve years of my life
spent filling this damn bandwidth
rapid cycling
Spinning wheels and spokes on this
bipolar unicycle
Now my brain must rest
anonymity needed
reintegration
with society is quite
crucial to my mental health
