I simply wanted to quench my thirst when the algorithm caught my eye

It notified me of an open call posted by the thirsty

40,000 euros for a brand with a tarnished image

I did not apply to the open call the algorithm sent me

Because these thirsty ones are doing just fine

From Perrier to Vittel

they have sucked the earth dry

Drained the aquifers and dried up the rivers Sold PFAS as minerals

Sold water and more water,

Sold out, again and again

Nestlé Waters, money rivers

So you will understand that I did not apply

To the open call the algorithm sent me

Because 40,000 euros is not much to pay For a brand with a tarnished image

A brand that would like to reinvent itself

Use beauty as an excuse Legitimise itself through art

To sell us dreams And dodge taxes once more

Because they are always thirsty

And ready to starve us I did not apply to the open call the algorithm notified me of

But I picked up my pencil and wet my brushes

Fed my data and nourished the machine

To send out an image, with the hope

That the algorithm will catch your eye.
