Too Much, Too Little

Everywhere I look,

heads down

eyes down

walls up.

They call it the Digital Age,

promote it as possibility,

devour it like chocolate.

I call it too much,

too little.

Too much isolation,

too little conversation.

Take me back

to friendships that spoke with tongue and teeth

instead of pings and snapshots

of false reality.


The author's comments:

We're often so caught up in our phones and the internet that we fail to see the real things that are all around us. We need to look up every once in awhile and live life outside of a screen.
