*** Challenge Poem 28 ***
*** The
Keyboard ***
by 'Barry R. Long'
my fingers are resting
on the keyboard
glancing out the window, the view is
seaward
wondering what topic about I should write
my pc the
answer, setting my fingers in flight
a marvelous invention the
computer
get so attached you'd think it a suitor
I gaze upon
it for hours at a time
to turn it off, would seem like a
crime
through it I have found many new friends
yet
ironically reality it transcends
sending out messages into
cyberspace
real people and life it does replace
no longer do
I go out to catch a show
download it for free, now I'm a couch
potato
now when I want to visit, I send an email
there's no
point in phoning, the call would fail
I've become addicted to
this artificial mindset
to me life now means surfing the
internet
