Fifteen.

Back it up
Who said anything about 15 minutes
Give me just the same in seconds
And I’ll show you what I’ve got
What I’m packing
Why I’m worth it
Come and check the vine.

No we’ll never be royals but
Like Lorde said it 
I can be your missing piece of the puzzle
I can collect your hearts and likes
Maybe even capture minds
Your thumbs up and comments
Chime with my curated
Life lived out under
Your impersonal publics.

Yes you can shower me with kisses
And accolades because it’s just
What I deserve. 
My followers said so.
Have you not heard
My snapping and chattering
Show you what I want you to know
But the depth of this heart is too far to go.
So much for #nofilter

Roll up roll up and tap
Into my middle of the road
Riddle me this – are you still connected?
Do you think you know what makes this soul tick? 
Got us all figured out right?
Welcome to the next generation
We’re coming round the bend .

This hollow sketch of all you want me to be
is just bad reflection
Photoshopping out my imperfections 
to give you just what you want.
Check my fan count 
One. Two. Three.
