  • Need

    The era of the pretend
    So close, almost touching
    Like Christmas Eve every day
    These computers, they are our shields
    Spinning our narrative
    Match up
    Harmonize
    Still something missing
    We are that that is that
    Not here
    Have forgotten
    We form in bodies
    Not in the thought of
    Blood and a first scream breath
    This is our first step into the world
    Screens and pretty words cannot give us this
    We need
    It is ok to need
    Skin touched
    Sounds heard through the same air
    Not different rooms and temperatures
    Afraid to fail
    To make the same mistakes
    There is no mistake
    Only learning that must be learned
    If not then, then after, before the next
    Always a next, even when with the same
    We will not remember fingers on keyboards
    No, not this
    Sensations are the functioning
    Formations of memories
    Into this physical reality
    We come
