Google

The laptop heats my thighs as I pursue your imprint. Google throws up 16,300,000 results in 0.12 seconds. Facebook delivers a hoard of possible yous. You are an elusive ghost in a city of doppelgangers, always just disappearing around the corner. Each click is like a tap on the shoulder in a crowded street: the face revealed is never yours.  But there you go again, breezing past in the opposite direction. I am Breathless: I am The Man Who Loved Women. I give up: the Diana Wright who is a porn star is not you, but is quite distracting. And I can't type poetry with one hand.
