The Dusty Sock Under The Bed
The internet's a marvelous boon,
can't beat it for info and reference.
If interaction's your preference
somewhere on earth it's night or noon.
Quite sane or crazy as a loon
most treat new friends with deference
we find there's not much difference
between us, perched at the web saloon.
But misfits hide in masquerade,
each thinks himself the renegade;
suspicion keeps them set apart.
They're sleeping in the bed they've made
but we all share the price that's paid
when wary of the open heart.
