Bright and blinded in dazzling sun
Your avatar is an amazing One
Blinks and breaths on the other side
You linger with hope and hopeless pride

Sudden thoughts zing with proud,
stuck-up snapshots and retorts
You finish each one with a ha-ha
Yucking it up like a Lady Gaga

Ethereal pokes and inane texts
******-up wall-scrawls so complex
This graffiti stammers and sings
in the Spring and the Summer

Stuck in this hole is the virtual martyr
Following a hollow chocolate rabbit
Holding his clock above his fabulous pocket
Ticking gets louder as you go a little farther

Your eyes get blurry and your vision too
Sensing what it's like to live and breathe
Uncaring reality that seethes with living
Picking the ladder, you're searching truth

Now...

The blinking blue and amber lights
In purple darkness -- fretful frights
Screening over and over in your head,
You writhe and you scream in your bed

Hidden dreams of a Trojan horse
Plump with memories and remorse
They blink only once for each regret
Then slowly corrode your wasted head

What comes next is a return to thinking
Given up thoughtless grinning and winking
Those moments will wither and fall
in the Fall and the Winter
