Sisyphus: Up and Down Again


Sisyphus

Scrolling up and down the feed

Up and down Twitter

Up and down Instagram

He decides to take a break

And look up his namesake

Google says he was punished

And forced to roll a boulder up a hill

And when it rolled back down

Roll it back up again

Sisyphus scoffed

What a miserable life

Who could ever find value

In such mindless up and down rolling

Sisyphus said

Scrolling up and down the feed

Up and down Twitter

Up and down Instagram

Up

And

Down

Up

And

Down
