I am my Facebook page
A list of lists
I am a picture with a filter
A tag in someone else's post
 
I am my SAT score
An expensive page with bullet points
I am my resume
A copy/paste letter of intent
 
I am my gym membership
A stack of metal I pick up to feel powerful
I am the downward dog
A first place medal in a race against no one
 
I am my credit score
A bank account that will never be full
I am a debt report
A numerical risk and reward
 
I am my insurance plan
A walking blood bag: Type O -
I am homeostatic, for now
Organ donor printed on plastic
 
I am a *****sapien
An old primate chasing insects
I am evolution
The self-proclaimed best of the hominids
