TEXT (Excerpt)

We text, text, text

our significant words.

I re-read your first,

your second, your third,

look for your small xx

feeling absurd:

The codes we send

arrive with a broken chord.

I try to picture your hand,

their image is blurred.

Nothing my thumbs press

will ever be heard.

- Carol Ann Duffy
