we all want
this even life
this vision of beauty
looking at us
like the crowd looks
at the singer
we see in ourselves
in the mirror
in the night dreaming
of someone far away
and feeling stupid
about crying
about being lonely
in a world
so filled with love
and poetry
that it even flows
from our machines
connected
in the night
with tiny treads
that weave themselves
across a continent
and find you
