I am a human, not a machine.
I cannot be fully systemised -
reduced to outputs, efficiencies,
or endless productivity
My life does not belong
to faceless corporations,
to dashboards and data streams
that are always trying to measure my life……
Read MoreI believe in the heart of humanity

To meet the strife of this world
that we all feel-
in our bodies,
in the air,

And kindness
The threads of connection

The kettle takes too long to boil
My body is stiff
My inner weather is rough
Emails blink like demands
My phone buzzing with expectations
My never-ending to-do list untouched…..
Read MoreWe never meant to worship it
But somehow
The feed became a kind of altar
Anointed by engagement
Ordained by likes

The next upgrade
The next better version of me……
