Joy Thieves.

Look out for the joy thieves.
They live in inside tiny moments.
They begin as specks of dust.
And will desperately allure you.

They show up in the comments.
They present themselves as gossip.
They pop up upon your lock screen.
And disguise themselves as news.

You know how to silence them.
They are hungry but don’t feed them.
Don’t cater to the joy thieves.
For what we feed will grow.

I love you.
xo,
Chirp and Moo
