Respect, Connect: A Short Poem on Human Connection
A short poem on belonging, respect, and human connection — boiled down to the simplest vocabulary, and the two words we keep returning to.
A small one. Boiled down to the simplest possible vocabulary.
This is real, I’m not gonna conceal
This is real, and I just wanna feel
A part of something I can be proud of
and Love; Respect, Connect
Respect. Connect.
The closing repetition is the whole point. Respect. Connect. Most of what we’re searching for collapses, eventually, into those two words.
