For My Overlords
by Chris Sorrenti
so little of me
so much of them -
deserts of information
expanding
mountains of data
rising
oceans of news
spilling fatigue
junk mail
blackmailing me to
vault
the poll breaks
every night
crash landing me
into the gun barrel
of my bed
few precious hours
before morning
triggers again -
ever less of me
into more of them
