Concerts of Human Interaction by Eric Evans

Yesterday called to see if
honesty was lonely and wanted company,
absolute in feeling late
when playing concerts
of human interaction,
so much on pause, so much acute
ability with a passing stranger,
loaded with everything we carry and shoulder for a long time to come,
nervous impact on levels we can’t
possibly begin to understand.
