Glass cracks in my teeth
I put my smartphone
in my mouth
swallow a glass
of data. Tile
of water never tasted
so sweet
from the faucet of my phone
I pour myself a tall glass
of teeth for the tenth time today
it’s no wonder I keep
getting up to pee. Aglow
with how many likes how many
loves how many thumbs
throb thirst for the source
code the sauce.
