distanciation sociale
i am so goddamn lonely
and tired of trying to
conjure up the memory of touch
from before these gestes barrières.
tired of manic zoom calls
fondu enchaîné, boucle sans fin
juste pour que je puisse oublier
cet état de distanciation
sociale, or otherwise.
deep-sea cables radio waves satellites
dictating the terms of our human emotions
horribly mangled in this tangle of electrical wires,
faces reduced to pixels.
