Withdrawal
The things we care about
are suddenly disappearing
and we don't get it.
We've been too busy
writing blogs, searching
Google, indulging fantasies.
Lately have you noticed
how talks are one syllable grunts?
An uh-huh and a yup!
In and out of our lives
friends disappear, reappear,
disappear like spring blossoms
no time to inhale fragrances,
or nurture with chit-chat
lost in the clamor of cyberspace
mesmerized by the screen's glare
our world shrinks as we stare
into our own narrow gap.
