Notes About The Poem

A simple set of questions for the reader to reflect. This hopes to put out a question about the changing attitudes of society about confronting issues and the acceptance of this with the internet now being so prevelant.

Internet and Society

My friend, what’s your love filled channel,
Where does your mind retreat?
And when you’re there, what is your crutch? 
What forces you to be discrete?

Do you enjoy the bondage site,
The site tying up the lonely spouse?
Or maybe the site where there’s hundreds of people
Filling each room of the house.

And why does this intrigue your mind?
Why does it make your pulse run?
Is it because you see folks enjoy themselves, 
And you too want to relish the fun?

Or is it a burnt in curiosity,
To learn what folks label taboo?
To learn this taboo with your partner,
So you can both try it too?

An interesting set of questions posed to your readers. I guess the answer lies within the individual but I have to ask am I taboo because I write poetry and not novels Hmmm?
