My Computer

You frustrating beast
          and my companion, too
          I hate you and love you
          and wonder at you

          you byte me
          make me crawl through windows
          keep me up all night
          leave me in limbo

          I explore you, adore you
          You give me gifts
          of which, I'm unaware
          Cookies without milk
          and boots in pairs

          taunt me, tantalize me
          And, snicker, too
          I know you do
          I have been watching you

          All day, all night
          you tease, me, please me
          drive me crazy

          You stare at me
          and laugh at me
          making me glare
          and pull out my hair

          My computer, my
          foe and friend
          leading me to dead ends

          you laugh at me
          I know you do
          I have been watching you

          Oh, God, I think I am in love

Thank you for the warm welcome, Poet Devine.
And, thanks, Troy -- my poetry -- has its
moments, yours, always has moments --)

With all the poets in here, I think it
would be tremendous fun for people to
select a title and have everyone write on
that title --) Certainly, would be challenging!

Warm Regards,
Teresa King
