170: The Answer is Yes
I think it’s the reason we have our phones
glued to the palms of our hands.
I think it’s the reason we nod at strangers
on the sidewalk and hold the door
for those who walk by.
I think it’s the reason we post photos
and check the comments.
I think it’s the reason we work overtime-
arriving early, staying late.
I think it’s the reason we send check-in texts
when it’s been a few weeks.
I think it’s the reason we binge-watch tv shows
that make us feel alive.
I think most of the time,
in almost every way,
we are all asking
a hundred times a day-
is there room for me here?
