judgment day
I opened up the text app
and swiftly texted with two thumbs
I just killed someone
while waiting for a reply
I checked the scores on my sports app
you didn’t
said the incoming text
I did
I texted back
I paused and lifted my eyes
first I thought and then I texted
you haven’t lived until you killed
smiling
I opened up the music app
and decided to listen to lennon sing
happiness is a warm gun
when the song ended I looked
around and noticed
I was no longer alone
soon to be judged by so many
I waited in silence for the
incoming wave of endless pings
april two thousand fourteen
