Internet Compulsion
The bed's aren't made,
the dishes can wait,
the bills are due
and the mortgage is late.
The socks aren't darned,
dinner is burned
The dog has fleas --
and my friends feel spurned.
The garden is ready,
it's time to plant
but right this moment,
I really can't.
'HTML' and close that tag
Farther behind I seem to lag.
I'm clicking and linking
and all that stuff
Life on the internet
is really tough.
Send and receive
and check email
"Come to bed"
I hear them wail.
St. Peter may be waiting
at the Golden Gate,
I hate to disappoint him --
but I'm gonna be late.
But, bottom line,
what can I say,
My cyber friends
just make my day.
