the Zoom world
the Zoom world makes us all as if on the Spectrum:
the social cues of meeting the others’ eyes,
of nodding when in agreement,
of searching the faces before us
for how they’re reacting,
what they’re feeling
easy to deny,
when I have an hour or two meeting before me,
I have felt the temptation to get e mail done,
to maybe even read a book while nothing much might be going on,
how tempting a video game must be to our kids,
all of us are challenged
by how differently the world now washes over us,
the better angels within me
know that we an speak in these new languages,
we just have to realize the universality
within who we are,
within our dreams, our hopes, our fears,
and dare to move forward and trust
that tomorrow, and today, and yesterday,
are still connected,
and accessible to our hearts
and to the effort of our work.
