What If?

You taste like "what if's?"
Salty, never sweet.
I tried to play Regina Spektor's Fidelity, but my computer had no sound.
It hasn't had sound for days. Maybe weeks.
No volume makes me feel like my googling is soundproof or subtitled.
I press play on videos and I imagine what's trying to be said.
It adds a complexity to simple previews.
"What If I counted points?"
I did for 3 days and 14 hours.
I counted and counted. I ate and then didn't eat.
I heard about other peoples diets and how easy they were to keep.
"What If"
Come on, really- what if?
What If someone put sound on my computer?
Would my words be able to scream instead of just being read off the screen?
SCREAM!
Sometimes I think about screaming, but then- isn't just eating myself into oblivion- the loudest, most silent, blood curling yell around?
