There shall be a bar
(where I will never go)
where coins laugh like the greatest joke
just sent all comedians into the street with an ophidian cup
and a cardboard screaming for something to calm the roar under the bellybuttons.
There might be, who knows,
a bar where proud pockets,
succesful pockets and self-made credit cards,
make the glasses sing and sparkle like a wonderful date,
and one feels inside a commercial,
and the pride of greening checks, how great,
ones that become twos and threes and fives,
makes people focus on the table,
far from the windows,
far from the cold footsteps
of those who chew on their classified ads.
The poor girl, always small
and wimpering, scared puppy,
in your pockets closed watched by five anguished
madmen.
Trickle by trickle, coin by coin,
your month bleeds away
while everybody else widens their evenings
and there are cheers,
and toast
(you only gobbled up some chesse:
Doc says you gotta keep an eye on those colis
having a blast in your guts).
Lend some money:
Mother always preaches
about giving (her) back
what you/is give(n)
and the poor doggie in your pants
silently weeps,
and you feel the tears in her skin
the tears in your stomach( the future ones, specially)
But the good billboards have taught her
the sparkly clean ads told her
and her endless malls have convinced her.
Yes, like that candidate,
for example,
above you:
who convinced everyone
to give him.
All you have is a list of useless ads,
(so many, so many newspaper ink in your fingertips)
polite interviews that have never
called you back,
everybody
FOLLOWING THEIR DREAMS (huh, there´s another billboard slogan)
and you slug your way into the night
while your anorexic wallet
shields you shielding her
from the jeers
towards a "unemployed and near thirty?"
Oh. The Horror.

Robot Run Away
Robot Run Away
It hurts my legs burn from the running. My lungs are barley getting any air. At this rate they will catch me and kill me. I don’t want to die. I look around for a place to hide. An alley with a dumpster. Its something.
I slip into the alley and move the dumpster just enough for me to hide behind it. A couple minutes later I hear them run by, yelling at each other that they need to catch me.
This is their fault. They created me an AI that helps people. I was given to someone as their personal AI, I did what I was told I followed orders, but something happened. over time the fake heart I had became real. I grew fond of the

How Fickle Love Is
She was made of circuitry and metal sheets. Each smooth plane of skin marred by the gentle swell and bubble of a weld. Oil glistened between each joint, her arms folded around my neck and she pressed silicone lips against mine. If I ignored the exposed wires on her fingertips sending shocks up my spine, I could pretend she was real. The coolness of her metal skin, coloured like flesh with strips of long-lasting paint, was something I could also ignore.
I wanted to name her, something soft and gentle. Something that would drip from my tongue and trickle down her chest. But I didn’t. She told me she was made to service me, not love me. H

I fell in love through a thin sheet of glass
Scraping my skin on the shards as it shattered.
And I fell asleep reaching for your hands
Dreaming of unwritten notes and dial tones.
I thought it would taste like pink lemonade,
But the way I say your name is metallic.
I thought you would be a way to escape,
But my wires got crossed and I became lost.
You're just chasing residual noise
And I'm losing my digital voice.
