Electronic Communication

Messages from near and far
Filling data stacks
Ephemeral connections
In mechanically precise
sterile fonts
Impersonal perfection

Nuances of talking are lost
Sterile jests fall flat at best
At worst offend
Prick a nerve
Punctuated with the finality of an e-mail signature
Abyssal silence filled with confusion as to the meaning of your words
Insult?
Offence?
Jest?
None of the above, just a message sent in haste amongst the myriad of messages that need a response
