communication

Airport terminal. sounds.
shops. talk. people. words.
announcements. noise.
cell phones. talk.
everyone is hearing,
but are they listening?
everyone is looking at something.
but are they seeing?
everyone is glued to some form of screens.
laptops. words. wi- fi. net. talk.
tvs. computers. ipods. games. noise.
pixelled vision.
If communication is this good,
how come are there
these many conflicts around?
