Screen Ghosts
I see
life online builds
new relationships grow
worlds unfurl under eager hands
those accomplished feelings
mean so much when
life's dry.
although
when they are gone
nothing remains but ghosts
real life reawakes, one's heart sees
screens can never replace
humans right near
ourselves.

Prompt ▶︎ Form: Eintou
The Eintou is a septet—a stanza of seven lines.
In these lines, there is a cycle, a flow of syllables or words that rises and ebbs.
It is an African American poetry form consisting of seven lines, totaling 32 syllables or words. The Eintou developed as a means for African American poetic forms to take their place in the forefront of American poetry.
The 2-4-6-8-6-4-2 structure of the Eintou is crucial to African-American philosophy.
Life is a cycle. Everything returns to that from which it originates.
