Here’s a Day


Now here’s a day
Basking in the digital glow of hi-rez pixels
Eating a handful of peanuts
Drinking yesterday’s coke
I stare at lines of code
Ruin my eyes
Trying to decipher the purpose of this program’s existence
Which is still easier by far than reaching for the purpose of mine

I know it’s in there
All purchaseable answers to our divine questions
How to lose ten pounds
How to find a date
How to remain vastly entertained
Aggregated through large language models
Ten billion voices waiting to be heard
How to reach the meaning beyond the meaning of words
