Black Hole - June 16, 2025

one video becomes a hundred

five minutes turns into three hours

unbelievable stories soaked with

outrageous sights and sounds,

steamroll into a hypnotic, soul-

sucking whirlwind of addiction

it’s the black hole of the internet

that slowly pulls some watchers in

I’ve circled its perimeter before

and found myself in a dying orbit

when a voice and a pair of hands,

the sane part of me, pulled me out

the same one that would try to stop

a drunk friend from driving home
