                                     ­             Trial by Twitter

                     “…why torture ourselves in order to hurt others?”

                                    -Dag Hammarskjold, Markings

We have made ourselves a surveillance state
Eager to be approved
Fearful of being judged
We the accused must not presume to think

We impeach ourselves daily on their screens
(The screens are hardly ours)
Accusing ourselves of sin
Against the loving terror of the Now

But as for a torch and a Phrygian hat –
Is there an app for any of that?
