We meet fellow humans throughout our travels,
Become close - friends, dates, lovers.
Always we are distanced again
from death, geography, or meeting others,
Only dialtone on the phone,
cold and empty beneath the covers. (Patri Friedman)

We meet fellow humans throughout our travels, Become close - friends, dates, lovers. Always we are distanced again from death, geography, or meeting others, Only dialtone on the phone, cold and empty beneath the covers.
