Before a lit panel

* before a lit panel *
Lay the heartbeats tangible
Against the embraces intangible
This strangeness of the net
This world within a world
Another layer of sensation
Virtually laid across your mind
Stirring emotions and loyalties
Though no physical exchange occurred
The greatest loves of all
Or most foolish always do occur
Between our own thoughts fleeting
In majestic palace of the mind
Our very own Canada for deciding
How the heart will pine
Sitting before a lit panel
A screen to other people before the same
In moment equal as we exchange
The thoughts around us wrapped
Release tension of the day
Over a coffee and a chat
With this no longer stranger
Twelve thousand miles and three time zones distant
From our own expiring day.
