darkness ruined a dark lit night glistening on heat burning watching crescent heated red hot light grappling to melt ore

in false images for punters paying for sharades of prefabrication painted in safety approved steps to falsehood

in body we saw in a molten fire the broken paths
that would not allow our joining as we failed to learn and thus entrapped in atrophy we burnt in a fire of knowledge

You've touched this in a nutshell..can't help remembering how naieve and excited I was upon my very first computer...

Thought I'd touch the world, meet people and chat about their cultures...only to learn the mean ness of life, and the hurt of lies...and I still can't understand it to this day...how and why people get off on pretending to be who they are not...

Not that I haven't met some very outstanding, honest and cultured people, but met some very sleezy ones as well, which frightens me for our children.

Good one Dave

thinking how true your words are...

and after reading Lee's response..I think that as far as the computer goes, many pretend to be whom they wish they could be and sometimes learn more about themselves, not always to the  negative...
