We The People

SELFIE

I woke with a feeling about the world
like a hair in my mouth
I could feel but not extract.

Sprayed myself with poisonous drops
that stop the mouths of little things,
I masked my scent with murderings.

Ignored the real world, pretended
I had time to spare on what
we the people thought about silly things.

Stopped by a story from the other side
of this shrunken world, crowd suffocated
a dolphin calf while taking selfless.
