INTIMATE IN PUBLIC (SPHERES)

A short story of poems; a devotion to the death of privacy in the digital age, hand in hand with the misjudged safety and its bitter overtones – false perception, isolation, loneliness and vulnerability.

I.

I type words

I don’t dare to say

and upload photos

of bended reality

­– digital identity



II.

I crave a talk

so, I ­leave the house

to take a walk

and chat online

– phone screens


III.

I’ve always hated maths

but I’m in love with the algorithm

a search for ‘the one’

love

– digital match


IV.

I type in one

word suggesting another word

finding answers

and even more questions

truth and lies

filtering through

too much information

– search engines


V.

Instead of bright eyes

an electrifying smile

and wild gestures

I speak to

reflective displays

wired speakers

and straining radiation

– faceless interaction

Eins, Null — Piep, Piep, Piep
