What is perceived
is different from what is expressed.
We construct our own worlds
That's why hand-in-hand
is a longing so deep
why toe-to-toe seems like heaven;
because our words cannot meet and merge
and embrace and kiss and unite and make love
because the air devours them one-by-one
the hateful air with its ravenous appetite
for disconnection
refuses to let our words
tell the same story
but if our words cannot merge
will our haptic hugs be any better?
