Ice Cold Conversations

When on earth will you call them? After, they are dead? Don't you get it? God made ears for hearing, not texts to be read. No wonder people kill each other. They are love-empty inside. Keystrokes are not the same As hearing the voice of another. We won't even talk to a customer rep? Oh, no..we choose Apps over humanity? No small wonder, we are human wrecks! Just pasty, glaring faces stuck to screens. Or thinking that FaceTime is our way out. You can't hear their souls', cry and shout. We, breathing corpses, cold and so mean. The world's biggest scam, on holy devices, the world's dream! And how happy we are to have our children be on the same devices. Where they, too can share their hearts in ice- cold slices! 5/11/2021 ~1~

Good Morning Pangie - Very true that although convenient texts are cold and unfeeling. It is very sad that humanity is being lost and the human connection as well. You stated your message in a clear poetic fashion. Thank you for sharing. Perhaps one day we will get back to the human connection. Keep enjoying poetry soup.

Lisa~the device driven connection is terrifying to my soul. It's tbe tundra of humanity. It's used to punish free speech now. Scientists cannot meet, even. And look at tbe oil pipeline hacked on tbe East Coast. But no word from DC. Add masks? Devices and masks. Are neither acceptable nor delightful. Prices will rise on all products hurting all classes. I don't think we will go back. There is far more damage being done and it is frightening. Poets don't want to face this. A few do. Most live in Floral denial. They only want ti see the happy face of life. They belong in first grade, I can't stand it! Pangie xx

Oh how I yearn for human contact ~ a smile ~ a touch ~ a voice. You are so right Panagiota. This weekend I am lucky for my grandson and his girlfriend are coming to see me and that will really make me happy. Excellent read and sadly so true. With love and cuddles to you both ^~^ from Ann xxxx

Dearest Ann, You are a very normal person! What's more, you have a heart. Hearts cannot exist via devices Children are getting harmed the most and pinheaded parents, don't get it. I get plenty of mental beatings for this. But, I prefer a human to a device, Thank you for reading me. Faces, mouths speech, eyes, expression...I lime Tbe iPad has no face, no heart. Love you. Panagiota xx
