Futility

Distract

destruct.

Resist. 

The inevitable

silence 

ensues.

dVerse open link night hosted by Grace.

antiSocial

The person you are

calling is currently

unavailable,

please leave a message

after the tone.

Inbox empty,

you currently have no

new messages.

My phone vibrates,

a moments elation

deleted

by a network text.

Only Facebook asks me

how I feel.

I tell it I feel

alone

and twenty ‘friends’ respond

sending hollow hugs and

‘thinking of you vibes’.

You are not one of them.

Log-in to Yahoo messenger,

your name fades to

grey.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll see

your face.

But then I remember

you’re

one Hundred miles away.
