Beware of Chat Rooms

Beware of Chat Rooms

By Elton Camp

To spend time in chat room isn’t very wise
They are filled with weirdos and their lies
You think you talking to one to be trusted,
But if you knew, you might be disgusted

Remember it is a person you’ve never seen
And actually it is only words on a screen
Joe’s picture? How do you know it’s him?
It might be some young boy nice and trim

Some young girl is enjoying a flirty chat
Not knowing it’s an old man huge and fat
If you must, just ignore this sound advice
Maybe I’m wrong and it will turn out nice

Good advice here, Elton. I've had my fair share of El Fako's. Then again, I have also met some awesome people online. Well-written piece, my friend. :))
