Cannot Program This
No syntax for consumption, no ideals worth the praise, no beliefs, no assumption, no joy for declining days. It has been tried, pushed and forced— you can map the body, not the ache; code the laughter—make it fake. No sense-making in this soul business, just wasting syncs and fading systems. This growling creation, outright meaningless, rebooting malfunctions to mend the madness. You can not program this. ©Samia Oldman
