Fragmented | Poem

 "Be careful which buttons you press and which games you test."

'Fragmented' is a short poem written and created by me. As a lover of video games, I wanted to put a spin on when games occur in reality—when it really is game over. This poem can interpreted in one of two ways: a literal gamer, or a metaphorical player. You decide.

FRAGMENTED

A player
A controller
Wired
No longer a holder.

A game
An animation
Digital
A fictional infatuation.

An escape
A rage quit
Broken reality
Unable to fit.

A start
Deluded
An end
Concluded.
