Cyberspace Poem by Paul Butters

Cyberspace



Where are you Paul?
I'm in Cyberspace Mum.
My Pentium processor has broadbanded me
Into this wondrous realm.
A pixel powered virtual landscape
Peopled by avatars
Speaking Internet Slang.

FFS, WTF are you talking about?
She asks.
In so many words.
I LMAO and ROFL at her incredulity.

It’s full of danger, that Internet, says Mum.
That’s true.
It’s full of paedophiles,
Spammers and trolls.
Hackers.
Chat-rooms and forums
Plagued by flame-wars
And spam enough to fill a trillion tins.
Sites full of viruses, Trojans, malware and spyware.
Cyber-bullies and loons abound.

But I just Love it.
A Heroin addiction
Needing every fix.
A realm indeed of quantum singularities,
And imploding nebulae.
