Removed from reality

December 18, 2010

He doesn’t see much in eye contact
nor does he care to relate
Its true he’s always lacked tact
a few think it’s more, it’s hate

He’s taking matter into his own hands
and leaving reality behind
Going off to a sea of cyber lands
creating a virtual world with his mind

Taken in totally with the internet space
wanting a universe of his own
He’ll be a force without a face
removed from reality, connected but alone

*** written in 1996, a few years after the start of the Net
