american made

the bar code on my arm
tells the story
of my life
each line each digit
breaks my existence into a few sentences.

the rfid tag under my skin
gives watchers
the play by play of my movements.
(yes, i was there for nine hours
and that was the beginning of the night.)

the magnetic strip on my plastic
reflect spending habits
indulgence surfaces at a high price.

nothing is secret.
