First of all, never press the numbers; you’ll
learn it helps to avoid relationships.
Press B when you need to hit bottom, fuel
the furnace or toss your garbage. It’s hip
to press M, step out to a balcony
and decent view, watch your fellow humans
wander landscapes, judge if they’ve found any
reasons, garnered any hope. To summon
greed and luxury, press P; you’ll fancy
how you rule the world while fearing perhaps
you’ll lose it all. To reach new heights, or dance,
breathe clear air or touch the sky, simply tap
R. True, you can jump. But, for what it’s worth,
press L for a safer trip down to earth.
