this life was a digital file
organized on 20 hard drives
made a splash in the WordPress world
typed opinions with my upper lip curled
my shame spiral has gone viral
please defrag me
safe-eject me
was a hit on someone's playlist
posthumously 5-star-rate me
compressed and comatose
hi definition overdose
no mother but the motherboard
added memory and i'm reborn
this life was a digital file
ashes scattered over 20 hard drives
hands sutured to a dead keyboard
and the legacy will be restored
no one ever saw me in the daytime
in the night just a shadow on a blind
140 characters and i can't die
HD version of my suicide
i disgraced my interface
the monitors just look dishonest
USBs are all i see
upload to eternity
this life was a digital file
organized on 20 hard drives
legacy is in the comment threads
on the web i can never be dead
