these are the words,

mere pixels

stretched across

the endless digital canvas;

they are nothing

without you;

empty and meaningless

photos that strike your retina,

translated to signals,

interpreted by your neurons

and given life

and given meaning.

they are seeds

planted,

given bright/dark light

by the sun that rises

in your sky;

grown by rain

from the clouds

along your horizon…

what are they?

you tell me.
