how to be just a person online in a digital space? not just a person, as whole as, as multifaceted as

sure isnt irl

yes compressed into a screen

yes compressed into words

and still,

as in, uninhibited

with abandon

unconcerned with viewership

for free, for nothing at all

knowing how easily words can be misinterpreted

knowing especially without cadence and tone and breath so much is always lost
