Silent Texting

Faxing the texting words
Is now a fan out of sight
Not touching a hand

Creation of disappearance
Not sight or sound
Of human kind

Only touching the mind
Leaving the body untouched
Unable to feel reality

Thus, appearing as real
As a television show
Or a silent radio

Torn apart
Sights and sounds
Now only words

Separating the body
From the mind
An illusion of real life

As if we were 
Action figures
Playing

A new game
