everything i cook tastes the same

everything i cook tastes the same
sometimes i think i’ll cook something different
something nice
so i get a recipe book out
and choose something different
something nice
and start making it

of course
i don’t have this ingredient
or that ingredient
so i use the nearest thing i have
out of the ingredients i already have
or leave it out entirely
and hope it’s okay

still
at least i’ve cooked something different
something nice
which tastes exactly the same now
of course
as everything else i’ve ever cooked

I’m using the internet
because I can’t sleep
and I can’t sleep
because I’m using the internet

caught
in a refresh cycle
updating
every
page
in the hope that something has changed
but nothing has

and when something is looked at this closely
this constantly
the illusion is created
that nothing ever does
nor ever will
