CHATTING
Regale me with endless chains of greetings
Bury me beneath banter banal
Welcome me with waving winking smileys
Include me in your greetings one and all
Don't ask me to hold forth on intense topics
I am not on the Internet to think
I'd rather laugh my ass off at your lame jokes
Particularly if your posts are writ in pink
Please tell me about the weather down in Dallas
Hey what time is it there where you are from?
Describe in detail what you had for dinner
But be sure each post resembles day old gum
I yearn for boundless bawdy badinage
Or a socio-political debate
Or even just a high minded discussion
Of books or poems or even real estate
Instead I settle for a pleasant greeting
A nod, a smile, a wink, an LOL
I grit my teeth and type a sweet rejoinder
While wondering if I am trapped in hell
