In Defense of Reality

by

Sunnyone

A few things I have pondered,
about our cyber-space...
Like, when did "a/s/l?" become a greeting?
And the reason pics are given,
(ones that don’t include the face)...
Is because there’s not one chance in hell,
of meeting!

Someday I’d love to meet,
whoever named it "Chat"...
Isn’t that what ladies do at tea?
No wonder that humanity is in the place it’s at...
The only place we touch,
is:
on the screen...

Please don’t get me wrong...
I’m fond of these machines...
They’ve proved to be some very useful tools...
By man’s own hand,
without a thought...he brought them into being...
Not knowing they’d end up,
in hands of fools...

And fools we often are...
As hunters on the net...
Of every vice and greed that’s known to man...
We keep ourselves anonymous,
and take what we can get...
Then give back,
just as little as we can...

I know that there are cases,
of cyber love that’s real...
But that’s a rare exception,
at it’s best...
More is the case of "click--->you’re gone"...
Who cares how someone feels...
It puts the human spirit to the test...

It’s only my opinion,,,
I’ve pondered at some length...
And felt this subject worthy of debate...
I had the urge to write,
about our finest human strength...
Though cyber’s fine...real life’s devine...
When two communicate!!!!!!

Why don't you look at om de hoek
