In real life, I'm prickly sometimes quite defiant but here upon the internet I'm Y2K compliant Relationships within my life often make me cross seems they're all wanting windows while I'm operating DOS You and I together a new love soon to start but first I need your background to microchip my heart If I were a computer and reason balanced risk then when I'd loved and lost again I'd just de-fragment disc After years and years of marriage when all about me looked a fright would you still caress me and love me megabyte My love is an adventurer and highly do I rate he likes to snatch at my wood leg while playing software pirate you're arrogant, with pride with knowledge like a CPU but I think, I might decide you really stink,see,PU In the early seventies I fanned it with the Trekkies but with information overload my friends now are 'puter techies Last one in haiku Snow, snow and more snow Data irretrievable Blank screen and blank mind < !signature--> "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- [This message has been edited by Kethry (edited 09-22-2000).] |

Snow, snow and more snow Data irretrievable Blank screen and blank mind no need to be like Marvin the Paraniod android, wonderful piece, I compute this one very well. "an afixiation a fix on anything the line of life the limb of a tree the hands of he and the promise that s/he is blessed among women". Patti Smith |

Kethry This was very interesting to say the least. I'm glad your Y2K compliant. If you had not been, we may never have seen this gem. I hope you have enough memory on your PC to keep posting your poetry. If not, then this would be a shame. You may have to go out and purchase a mainframe. Garfield |

ggrn You mean you have to have memory to post! Wow I didn't know that thanks for telling me . Great that means that both the puter's and my memory are shot. Juls Thanks for loving this piece of little nonsense from me.

Kethry I know that memory does not post(LOL), I was just trying to get into your little cliche game. I probably should have said keyboard and now I wouldn't be ashamed. Garfield |

ggrn. You needn't be ashamed. I have a friend who does that to be when I state the obvious. She goes all gushy and I retract or ROFL. I liked your reply. Truly.
