# The Start of Health
## August 17th, 2020
```
In rooms of unimagined distance
apart they are and I with them
fingerless and tongueless only
eyes and ears to lend
Waiting for what's dreaded only
hoped abstractly into being
the teacher and half-willing pupil yoked
upon the barren screen
```
- So...many...technical difficulties...
