Social Engagement
She says she's fine with it
With social distancing
It's her normal defiant
absence of resonant integrity.
In fact,
thanks to the magic of World Wide Webs
she now has all day
to bask in messages she can choose
as resonant
and "bad" humored dissonant
social engagement
and political disengagement,
empowering
and disempowering
now her whole day/night choice
of sounds good-humored sung
and bad-rumored hung
out for risky social distance voice.
Polyphonic prosody
is like polypathic integrity
except older,
often wiser,
healthier
and wealthier.
Harmonic humored sounds
predict virally rumored rounds
of global ego/eco-therapy,
bicamerally wiser resonance,
bilaterally health systemic resilient
and wealth politically economic
Power tensions,
as my oppositionally defiant daughter
might more mindfully intend,
resound "Fine!!!!!!!!!!!"
roared like a weapon
might not(not) question double-rewinding Fine?
if you could ask me nicely for a hug
so we return to smiling, Fine
As pastel hugs
and shrugs
dawning viral light.
