Digital Distance

We are caught up in this digital distance Tangled in strings of binary code Texting in sequence but in silence Transmitting thoughts on keystroke roads. We are caught up in tactile indigence An impoverished need for human touch We receive electronic mental perceptions By fonts implied as such. We are caught up in digital rambling Ritualistic taps of thoughts and rhymes Suffocating until we tap, release and enter Into the electronically charged sublime.
