The screen is a "dangerous" place to be in many different ways. Talking to strangers is one. But we can't lag behind; we need to keep up with the times. The poem below is the result of dissecting the contradictory feelings the web may give rise to. I wrote it a couple of years ago, when I was "newer" to the online community.




SCREEN LURKER You lurk right thereIn the corner of the screenYou call yourself a friendYou dissemble unabashed When the screen gets blankLittle friend you are not enoughYou are so much more than a drugSo much less than a cure Every day your image
Fades with the tempo
Of a novelty turnedThreadbare with the use
