It is so evident at evening
our time is dwindling.
So put aside the trivial chatter
of incessant interruption of reasoning
twittering all the day long
with an absence of audience.
Think about the laughing times
and the loving times
long before electronics.
A man is an island now;
connections are not real.
Breath, warmth, touch are absent
in the waves of light
mocking reality.
—Kathleen Ellis Faulkner
Life before electronics. There are still some of us who remember those days and value the human connection. Thanks, Kathleen. xoA
