Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is friendship.
Today’s poem is a number and friendship poem about online
friendships and the interdependence of selves.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
Twenty-seven's often found online
Writing to her followers and friends.
Each thought leaps from her fingers into time,
Now urgent in a stream that twists and bends,
The conduit on which the heart depends,
Yearning for a grace it can't define.
Selves are not themselves till they combine,
Each needing something yours to mirror mine,
Vetting visions through another's lens,
Ending where who knows a person ends,
Never more than I nor less than thine.
