1 nanosecond is 30cm
the distance an electrical signal travels on a copper wire
in that short time
how far does a word travel,
before it degrades?
further than a hug, to be sure
what unit do we measure that in?
area codes? subnet masks?
how do i say that you matter,
how do i send it so that it
reaches you?
what words do i use
to show how desperately i want
to smother your worries in hugs
and homemade food?
what phrasing is error-correcting
so it reaches you as more than just
another bunch of garbled pixels
letters whose meaning twists into
awkwardness and discomfort
what do i say
what do you hear
when all i can write
is
💙

really wishing i could gives hugs over the internet again
