Compensation mentality.

Hustle culture and productivity hype
Every match a better vibe
Only those who stand out get swiped right.
Life in portrait format.
Short videos proliferate like weeds,
instead of words, likes are needed
and new realities built in stories.
With every moment a new double-click.
Today love is non-committal
Publicly fought over
And only the loudest life wins.
Generation unable to commit.
Between relationship status in the Instabio,
Self-presentation
And dopamine overload
I'm actually just searching for
A bit of analogue love.
Totally retro and all.
