To Somebody Out There by Vashti Trisawati Abhidana

If I remember
It started from a cell
Wrong number, right answer
It’s just another day went by
Until a paragraph came along
And answers back longer than an highway

The highway is straight ahead
Comes and goes never ends
Until one day
Each of us tries to face-to-face
But time seems caught in the act
And face-to-face just inside our imagination
Imagination is better than reality

And just get along through the highway
And the paragraphs are still there
Still there intertwine
with thoughts
with laugh
with heart
with care
And it wouldn’t fade away
Until the decision is made
in a different highway

Some external links: The Bat’s Poetry Cave. — Fledermaus’s poetry site. Talking Writing Monster. — the irreverent and irrelevant chatter on subjects both serious and not quite. A free for all board. You can scribble anything on it without registration (but it doesn’t let spammers in). You can even post your poems. Qwant.com. — a search engine from France. It’s an alternative because there are a few alternatives, like Bing, Duckduckgo, and Ecosia. And there is Yandex, the ultimate language-oriented search engine for the Russophone world. Commercial Links: Russian Commerce – the foreign trade assistance agency Other links: Poems and poetry in Russian (if you are reading this in English, as you obviously are, then you’d have to switch the language, the language switch is on the menu.
