The Lonely Woman

She bought a computer Hooked it up by herself Thought that she'd find a suitor Fit for a tudor She'd heard friends talking How they entered the game She felt she knew now She could do the same She filled out the description How she was tall and slim Job experience on a whim Lingerie model should please them Long flowing blonde hair Pouty lips to boot Sure this description was a hoot What else could she say about such a beauty as she When looking in the room A different scene we see Old dumpy woman Down on her knees Scrubbing the floors Baseboards too Ruffened hands from labor Would this work at all Only being truthful Will get you a date Even if your life is getting on late Tell all the qualities that are inside That is the way to be a bride (This is not an original idea but comes from an old TV commerical of years ago when computers first became available for the general public. I need to work on this.)

Reminds me of how I met my fiancee. I was always curious how people thought lying about your appearance would make someone like them when they finally do meet up, if that is what they wanted in the first place. But then what else would you do on this type of website? Always baffled me to no end. Also thanks for your observation on my darkness poem. I'm glad I'm not the only one that sees it so black and white.
