Did You?

Did you know pigs perform better on cognition tests than three-year-old children?

Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Clicking and combing and clinging to distraction.

Low pink buzz of panic, blue haze of links.

Coddling my basest impulses, blue and green bubbles.

Trying to hear myself tapping out words.

Glassy eyes, emojis, running out of ways to say I’m lonely.

Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Maybe I could make myself understood, if I understood what I want to say.
