Poem #37: Cyber Spacey

(Note: Today we embark on our 9 day adventure -- canoeing down Utah's Green River -- so check back in 10 days for photos of the trip. Until then, here's some new-mown fodder to chew on.)

=========================================

Cyber Spacey


Do you consider blogs

As bottomless cisterns?
Or vast and valuable depositories?

As homes for secrets and musings
and dreams and longings --
or for rants and rages?

As narcissistic, self-obsessed ramblings
to be ignored and avoided,
or jewels to be
appreciated and emulated?

As bloggers peck keys,
are their uncensored fingers
vomiting ire
or eliciting our laughter
and edifying our minds?

As they (perhaps) ungrammatically
vent and spew exasperation and vitriol
or enlighten and encourage
with grandeur-laden words
providing unexpected thrills
and occasional pearls

As all are welcomed - both regular readers
and fortuitously arriving peripatetic visitors,
to digest their brilliance or swill,
daily visiting and revisiting
their ramblings or ragings or priceless pearls,

As the visitors increment blog counters,
thus encouraging newfound wisdom
or more digressions or swill
tomorrow...

and the next day...
and the next after that...
and yet again the next..........

P.S.
Thanks for visiting my swill!

Y’all come back again, Dear Reader -- y’hear!
