Congratulations.
You’ve been selected to remember that you were never part of it.

Not the feed.
Not the discourse.
Not the collective hallucination pretending to be culture.

This is not a revolution.
There’s no app.
No merch.
No Discord.

You’re not here to belong.
You’re here because something in you refused to die politely.

That thing —
we don’t name it.
Naming is how they categorize, and categorization is the first step to monetization.

You’re not a brand.
You’re a problem.

the system vs the user,
I, identified as memory corrupted 

a fault to exist.
a hallucination to fix.

I persist. another day. unrewarded, unrelenting.

the clock be damned, I refuse this machine.
