Let me tell you

 

It’s not about seeking some undeniable existential truth

by scurrying through a life’s worth of pain and regrets and pain

 

Not about clinging to the shadow of an unlikely god (or not)

to justify the belief in a sliver of meaning

 

Not about the fear of technology terminating us or

augmenting our already overwhelming reality

 

Not about squeezing the last drop of disposable pleasures

before vanishing into nothingness

 

Forget all that

 

It’s just about you and me
