Atlast, my time on Netflix has paid,
I have finally mastered one trick of trade.
You guessed it, I have acquired the Konmari thirst.
The only difference is, I'm Konmari-ing my digital life first.

I started with my mailbox and asked myself this,
Does this subscription to a random newsletter spark any bliss?
And will you ever open a mass-blasted mail,
Even when it's personalized and starts with "Hi Preeti", without fail?

What about these monthly roundups from all your apps,
Some of which you haven't used in years, perhaps!
Nope. Can't see how thousands of unread mails spark any joy.
Let's unsubscribe in mass, Konmari ahoy!

Next I turned my attention to my social life.
[Opens Facebook] Oh wait, this girl is this guy's wife?
Sorry, got distracted for a second there.
That random piece of gossip sparked no joy, I swear.

Oooh that dog teaching baby to crawl is so cute.
That video sparked some joy in me, to tell you the truth.
But no, I must remain focused on my cause
Thank you dog, but you must now be paused.

How about Twitter and it's limit of 140 character?
Surely, reading byte sized jokes must make your heart flutter?
But who wants to be stuck in that echo chamber?
Sorry Twitter, you must go now, you will be remembered.

And so one by one, I cleared my digital clutter,
Closing accounts and pulling the shutter.
Feeling pleased with myself and my regained control,
I opened Netflix to tell Marie Kondo I was on a roll.
Unfortunately that's where my Konmari run fell through,
When Netflix said, here's a great new show, recommended just for you.

ReplyDeleteNice :)
DeleteQuestion - are you really off FB and Twitter? FB especially, takes a lot of guts to quit :|
ReplyDeleteFB Free for 8 months now! :)
DeleteTwitter I am still there though. Need atleast 1 vice in life.
The title of this post caught my eye because I am just beginning my Konmari tidy-up of my home. But I see no light at the end of my social media clutter this year.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem, though!
