Computer k.o.
We sit here, looking at our computer screens, waiting for an email, a sign. Someone will write. We'll wait. All windows open, all doors closed. Waiting. For a sign. Just a few words. To feel loved. To be wanted. All we want is a message. Our eyes wait to see black on white. Our hands wait. To click, click, click. Our ears wait for that sound. We are here, and now, waiting for the sign, a symbol, a thought, a word. The wait is never over. And as we look into a red-green-blue horizon, what we dont realise is how fickle and pixelated our hearts have become.

Amazing how powerful this black on white. One errant pixel can change the entire course. Good thing my fingers know the way...
The digitization of human interaction. How cruel and inhuman it is that we cannot express ourselves any more without resorting to geeky, hi-tech analogies, and how reading "No new messages" on our Outlook can leave us feeling so utterly hollow and empty, like a newly formatted hard drive.
