Digital Conspiracy

Connected by Bluetooth, I fully suspect

             the smart scale


                           :: faithfully mounted with bare feet

                              each morning, even before coffee ::


             and the fitness tracker


                           :: ever present on my wrist,

                              monitoring inhalation/exhalation ::


of gleefully gossiping about my weight


                          :: tittering over my sloth,

                             wagering as to my BMI next week ::
