isn't technology
a wonderful thing?
you sit in the library
and hear a phone ring!
no place is private
in this world any more
hearing half conversations
in checkout lines at the store
surfing the web
reading emails too
its amazing how many
rude things we can do!
I like to be quiet
to be out of touch
to be alone a while
its not asking that much
I do love my web
being online all day
but still there are times
when I need to slip away
out of the loop
and off of the chart
my own quiet solitude
bringing peace to my heart
so I take my tea
settle back down
to my secluded world
but I will see you around!
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
It's got a wonderfully simple rhythm for a wonderfully simple need...almost a lullaby. Now I will drift back to sleep.
