quite odd when you can feel nothing
cannot feel anything
there’s something inhumane in it
because humans feel
they grab
they touch
their touch is a key
for me it’s a burden
it crosses the lines
it disturbs
it harms
or even worse
–it leaves no sensation
at all
but the facade never ends
“you should colour
within the lines”
and thus it continues
to demand the touch
they say it can heal
it may warm you up
not like the unwanted one
which leaves you
empty and guilty
of your inhumanity

alternative perception of touch
