to talk about the internet in a poem in helvetica sounds cheesy modern like the necessity to claim the current time as ours i am going to have a child a child that doesn’t know about time or the internet his heart beats like a hamster’s i tell the doctor he smiles a sad smile full of black tobacco teeth cats are a different meme they handed me my printed ultrasound a cousin with whom i never speak asks me to text it to her a colleague suggests i upload it to a poem “the uterine ultrasound as the first selfie” but nothing is ever enough things are always a little sad in the web my child grows but not a lot an app tells me he is the size of a strawberry it’s early still i look for videos i claim my time
