Good Friends and Great Friends

I have a friend
we make polite conversation.
She does not invite me
to parties or games.
We only talk when
I start the charades.

I have a friend
we understand each other
even in unknown languages.
We are always together
and every plan we make
we first consider the other.

Some have many friends
and others have just one.
The most important thing
is to have at least one great one.

The New Lost Generation

The Lost Generation
once a generation of the post-war soldiers
now the embodiment of the post-technology mindset
     Socially overstimulated
     Emotionally numb
     Relationally empty

As if our lives are forever buffering;

waiting,

for the life we'll never know.
