Describe yourself using one quote…
“Stars. Or rather, the drains of heaven – waiting. Little holes. Little centuries opening just enough for us to slip through.”

poetry by Max Wallis
Hello everyone. This is from my new book Everything Everything. Come and join me on Instagram or send me a message to find out more maxwallis www.max-wallis.com
Max Wallis's poem looks at love in the modern age and the ephemeral nature of our digital love letters. Illustrated by Agnese Bicocchi.
We send each other text messages at work. Discuss what we’re having for lunch. Ether-joined by unlimited messages and pixel screens. Two minutes after saying goodbye on dates our phones jangle, vibrate, ‘I had a lovely time tonight :)’. The little xx means more from you. You give me fewer than my mum. I look and linger at them, there, at the end of your miniature letters. Save the sweet ones in a folder and read them when down. ‘These are the reasons I love you.’ ‘Do you want to go to the cinema at four?’ ‘I’ve never felt this before.’ I smile when I see your name appear. The lump is a plastic pebble in our pocket heavy with the weight of expectancy. Linked to everything, almost sentient it throbs with the lives of so many people a button press away: Facebook, e-mails, Google and you. When people are gone: vanished. Ephemeral ghosts that exist but don’t. That breathe, but don’t. The wishing wells in which we shed our coins. Our thumbs linger over ‘DELETE’ as though they’ll disappear from memory, too. Punch. Gone. The love letters dead. Think that’ll make us feel better. When our hearts turn red again, we’ll wish we had the numbers still to say hello, hi, how do you do.
