Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

I'd Like To Feel Something Again

In whirl and twirl we waltz around
feeling guised and chastised
raising brick laden walls

Going ‘bout our daily business
foiled and desensitized
plagued by the veil of apathy

Once spring arrives and the sun shines bright
amazing how a walk in nature
can revive those dormant sluggish feelings



 “I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something." Crash, 2004

Caren Krutsinger August 4, 2019 at 6:01 PM "foiled and desensitized" - this describes life perfectly these days. I wonder if Crash might be a magazine? Line Gauthier August 4, 2019 at 6:28 PM Crash is an AWESOME movie. It won movie of the year actually in 2004.
