ocean away

oceans,

across the sea of my life to yours

we sit and peck hunt a t and y

and then a p and an e

for hours at a time

we sit

we listen with eyes

and search for the information

on this highway of our lies

until we’re real

until we feel

and long for and yearn

the one in a million shot

that comes through

unexpected

yet welcomed

this passionflower blooms

through monitor and rgb color

speaking in rhythms and timing

beeps and squeaks

and absent faces

satellite connection

from one corner to another

circling and spinning

out of control i feel

when what i know is real

when what i want i know

but cannot touch

from screen to shining screen

we sit instead

typing out this dream
