Talk To Me
A poem about silence,
connection and
the desperate need
to be heard.
I nearly threw my phone against
the wall,
hoping it would break - the phone, not
the wall,
although actually - maybe I do mean
the wall,
maybe I do want
the wall
to explode outwards -
like something resembling
a prison break,
an encouragement to embrace
some terrifying cacophony.
Or maybe I just want
the phone
to shatter,
so that all its silent likes
and seen(but unanswered)
messages
can echo my anger -
and maybe then,
for one gloriously self-indulgent
and wonderfully meaningful moment,
genuine contact
can be made:
plastic and metal
meaningfully disintegrating
in an instant of
exquisite communication.
