people sit in their lonely rooms
in algorithmic gloom
they do nothing all day and then rest
and so they are depressed
it’s a sad state of affairs
they don’t even climb the stairs
they wait for their phones to beep
to keep from drifting off to sleep
and dreaming of driving down empty roads
and then their heads explode
the roadside is littered with high heels
but nobody stops the spinning wheels
a raccoon crawls out of the woods
and inspects the goods
nothing to see here
goodnight, my dear
next poem
