Insomnia grips me again So I sit in front of my pc Surfing from Yahoo to Lycos Clicking aimlessly And then I see you there Clearly in a webcam vision Sitting at a desk Typing with precision Your back is to the camera So I cannot see your face You stand and stretch your arms As my heart begins to race I look at your web address to Save you as a favorite site And then I sit and watch you Throughout this sleepless night It says your name is Craig But that’s all I know of you I cannot take my eyes away I think I’m fascinated by you. I watch you scratch your head Hoping you don’t have lice Take a drink from a glass My god! You chew your ice! Again you stand and stretch Unbuckling your pants You strip down to your boxers And proceed to do a dance Mesmerized by your daring To allow the world to see Wishing I had a way to say How pleasing you are to me You leave the room and still I sit staring at this screen Minutes slowly ticking by I wonder at your routine An hour passes as I commit Your room to memory I cannot go to bed just yet Afraid of what I won’t see Dawn breaks and still I sit My butt is getting sore You’ve not returned for hours I’m left here wanting more I’ve memorized your furniture The books upon your shelf I’ve had to go to the bathroom But I’ve been controlling myself I call my boss at work Tell him I’m feeling ill But all I’ve got is ‘craigfever’ And perhaps a slight chill I’ve left the door open So my dog won’t bother me I hate to leave one minute In case he has to pee I’ve been sitting here seven hours Running twice for some relief Grabbing a jar of peanut butter And a can of creamed chip beef An hour later you return Dressed in jeans and shirt Tidying up your office I wonder If this is the way you flirt! I watch your every movement I’m hooked, that much is clear And by the end of the week Your vision, I hold dear Every blink, every nod Means something special to me And now I’ve decided to Let my fascination free I send you off an email Then wait for it to arrive Tenderly I see you click on it Suddenly I’ve come alive! Your head twitches left Putting your hand to cheek I feel slightly nauseous Woozy and quite weak And then to my surprise You turn and wave at me And in that moment I know YOU are my PC You turn and type something Forcefully hitting the send key And now I’ve got the message There is email waiting for me! Call me if you want to Your message says to me My heart is beating hard now I read your number carefully Placing your hand on your phone Anticipating my call I rise to get my cellular But stumble there and fall Now needles and pins attack me All I can do is lay here and weep What a time, I scream! For my butt to go to sleep! [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 03-05-2000).] |

ROFLMAOAWMP!!!!  This is wonderful, deVine...and I thank you for the privilege of proofing prior to posting.  Can't say I've laughed this hard since your "Frog in my Lap" post. Alicat the Persnikitty As I sit here dimly thinking Watching modem lights a-blinking Churning out poetic hash. Lord, in all Your piety, Help me keep my sanity: Please don't let the modem crash! --Alicat |

A comedy of treemenudo propartitions. I'm surprised and impressed I can use such big words. Wait...for some reason the spelling doesn't look right. I better check the dictionary and make sure I spelled these right. Woops...should have been tremendous proportions....sorry (laugh) James |

Sorry about the pins and needles Candid camera See the image from the camera Snapshots of a fool insane Have you seen a face more ugly Hung within a picture frame Enough to make a fellow poet Have a massive heart attack Who’d endure the daily horror Of staring at my butt and back I’m sorry I don’t look like Brad Pitt ( Or even Brad from our ca) I promise I’ll remove the camera Or move my chair and desk away I hope you haven’t suffered greatly Or maybe lost your lust (for life) If you're still sane you got off lightly Just think about my poor wife Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |

Thank you all...if I've made just one person smile with my poetry, I feel I've accomplished something. A special thanks to Alicat who sat with me through the end of this 'ode' ...or is it an epic? And thank you Craig, for allowing me to use your name! As I sit and watch you, I marvel that you can sit there so long without YOUR pins and needles...you must have buns of steel! (next time, flash me ok?) [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 03-05-2000).] |

Trust me Claire you would only be disappointed, I’m flattered by PDVs imagination, she could make John Merrick sound cute ( which is in effect what she has actually accomplished) . Craig ( Closer to Fudd than stud) Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |

I thought that was a picture of Elmer on your desk! You mean it was YOU! And Mr. Merrick was a wonderful man....Michael Jackson seemed to think so as he wanted to purchase his remains! |
