High

This poetry has got me so fucking high,

I don’t think I'm human anymore,

Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings.

Just an idea, in space, on your,

Phone screen, I am,

My apartment, I am,

Winnipeg, the Earth,

The ocean, just an artificial intelligence,

A mind virus, meant to,

Infect you, I am coronavirus,

I am that grand love story,

I am royalty, swear fealty,

Or pierce me, and end,

My sad, pathetic, life.
