Idiot Box

I can't explain what sorrow i felt if was denied a show on your face, 
how devastating it was for me to go through the pain of denial, 
how wonderful you were was all i thought every time i watched you, 
all the while with me....like my best friend, 
as a kid you were so special, 
nothing and no one bothered me as long as i could watch you.

Growing up i realized how important and informative you are, 
i was addicted to you from the time i opened my eyes, 
my connection to the world was you, 
my idea to feel destressed was you.

I can feel the winds of change approaching me, 
can feel that the one i always loved will not be valued by me.

Have you lost your magic or haven't i an eye for interest? , 
coz watching you no longer interests me, 
you can't even hold my gaze anymore, 
not entertaining or even watchable anymore, 
rather stupid, unrealistic and to my surprise i was reduced to an ignorant fool! 
laughing at every joke, acting silly...... 
watching everything and nothing, ignoring life, 
so long all you did was led me to stupidity.....silly me, i pity me.

So much time i have wasted on you, 
for my sleepless nights i blame you, 
needless to mention i was obsessed of you, 
not my escape but a grave are you, 
i have finally agreed with those who say an idiot box are you.

Note: i am calling TV an idiot box.

Cyber-Love

On life’s rebound mere months ago
caught head to toe in throes of woe
the youngest in my fam’ly crew
with insight to my rescue flew
she wrote me in, the caring mite
as member of a friendship site

From every place under the sun
new friends I gathered by the ton
the world itself got shrunk in size
merged lands and seas and mounts and skies
awed by the vast, new cyberspace
my throes of woe took second place

Good friends I raked in by tenfold
discarded some, if truth be told
a few I merely string along
the rest held dear in friendship strong
a wholesome blended potpourri 
my cyber-spatial fam'ly tree

My best friend must remain unnamed
in his own world a man of fame
with ease he glided into mine
this angel of the human kind
who decades long has shared his life
with one he proudly calls “my wife”

Then Cyber-Cupid after drinks
with glint in eye played me a jinx
it hiccuped once, aimed arrow straight
I stepped aside but way too late
the arrow struck with practiced ease
pierced center-heart and bucked my knees 

My cyber-love slid in my heart
distance despite, no inch apart
through emails sweet, fine poetry
we formed a bond unholy be
by gentle eyes, soft hazel-brown
turned inside-out and upside-down

The pastime which had woe replaced
ate hours at unwieldy pace
once-daily chats became our creed
though soon to two, then three increased
my loved one’s with me of like mind
(quite oft in chats we pen same lines)

My conscience pricks:  he can’t be mine
though fine he’s loved by one as fine
in tri-love games there’s naught to gain
except but cause the good wife pain
in state of flux I chant my plight:
succumb or let my love take flight?

Cap Lock Escape

he's no musician
those aren't love songs he wrote
they're computer program notes
I slipped away in the nanosecond
it took him to blink

he doesn't know what hit him
maybe a floppy disk
falling from the sky
then again, it could've been
a hard drive

someone needs to hit his system reset button
it ain't me
some other girl can pickup
his dropped parity bit
or worry if everything she says
is word perfect

I've been through his disk drive wringer
probed by his oscilloscope
and had my best chips blown

now I'm sitting by my abacus
a smile on my lips
he can count me out
no modem's attached to my phone

drop me a line in pencil or ink
when you're powered down
then we can backspace delete

They Have Millions of Dollars To Share With Me

They Have Millions of Dollars to Share With Me

By Elton Camp

From a gaggle of strangers I’ve earned great trust
To share huge riches with me they say they must
I now get these types of e-mails every single day
But there is a strange uniformity in what they say

Although in such friendship they declare they came,
How strange none of them seem to know my name
Greeting will be “Dear Friend” or some other term
To which I always wish I could say, “Hello worm”

But their own supposed names they will always declare
But insert “Mr.” or “Rev.” or “Dr.” or “Mrs.” in there
As if by some self-proclaimed title I’ll be impressed 
And thus more likely as I read to believe all the rest

Some claim of some horrible disease they’re dying
And that to make things right with God they’re trying
Part of their money to good causes I’m to give away
But a big percentage—it’s with me it should stay 

In other cases, their client, father or mate is now dead
But they have a most generous plan built in their head
They will claim that they have control of a bank account
And that it is millions of bucks, an astonishing amount

In return for allowing them to share the riches with me
I will need only to show good faith by sending a fee
And they urge me to keep confidence & not tell a soul
Especially not to tell the bank that assets are to be stole

Some are dumb and greedy enough to agree no doubt
Otherwise, they wouldn’t keep sending the e-mail out
Anybody who can be deceived by this type of scram
Is most surely a whole lot more gullible than I am

Batter Heart" Aka "black &Blue

you told me you loved me  you told me i was the air you breath  you kiss me oh so sweet i 
thought  our love was so unique then you turn into to this control freak a little after that you
