Influence me.
Feed me words
That mean
Absolutely
Nothing.
Make me hungry
For the things
I'll never have,
Never want,
Never even
Think about
Again.
Push me around,
Make me sway
With desires
Stoked
By invisible
Flames
Floating through
Air and space
And starlight.
.
Give me a second
To unravel
Underneath the
Blue touch
Of influence.
Bring me down
To my knees
So that I can
Appreciate,
Adequately,
The torment
Of wanting what
You've given me.
It's such a tease,
This hunger.
You've carved
A hole in my belly
And I cannot fill it.
This is the
Longest form
Of torture
I have known.
And it buds
At my own
Fingertips.

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.

-Push me around, Make me sway With desires Stoked By invisible Flames- Well-crafted line! The ending was great as well. Social Media sucks! And i agree with, K.B. Silver, AI is ruining whatever enjoyment was left.
Great piece. I'm glad I got off Instagram. It was such a pointless waste of time. The only good thing on there was seeing what was happening in the rest of the world, and now there's no way to tell what's real and what's garbage. AI ruined the world way faster than expected.
