Listen to poem:
Mindful, Mind the Blip
stuffed with self, extruded
he staggered, drunk selfish
unable to hear,
unable to imbibe the context.
blinded by mirrors reflecting
distorted selfies in a slide show,
content with mindfulness
walking on the beach, he tripped
fell forward, distracted,
fell face-down, mindless,
limp and unimpeded,
no hands caught his fall,
leaving his mask, full-facial
and expression-less,
a self-portrait impression
a blip embedded in the sand.
