We connect

you and I

over distance and time

and on some days

we can disconnect just as simply

create the digital divide

‘cos

this, exists more

in the imaginary realm

Than it does in real life

safer, behind screens, where

emotions are created rather than felt

less to lose , more to gain

Online –

offline

modern day lovin’

Less for the heart

more for the mind

illusions

soul-less ego-games

you and I transactions

killin’ time.
