Lack of perspective – leads to resistance, parts of humanity – doubt their existence. A flatscreen is flat – lose one dimension. We lose real contact – never mind our intentions. You cannot meet people, you cannot touch people, you cannot smell people. Connected by ‘socials’ – but we’re all fucking lonely. No outdoor activity – but Zoom meetings only. Using WhatsApp or Skype – simply is no replacement. We might just give up – hang ourselves in our basements. You cannot meet people, you cannot touch people, you cannot smell people. You cannot meet people, neither family or friends. You cannot touch people, any real contact ends. You cannot smell people, ‘cause their breath is unhealthy. You cannot feel people, all that’s left are their selfies. Blaming Covid-19 – ultimate escapism, mankind exposed – ever growing racism. Without real contact – nobody is listening. Whether angry or sad – our eyes won’t stop glistening. You cannot meet people, you cannot touch people, you cannot smell people.
