Effects of the Internet

It really is sad
How happy I seem
Sitting in front
Of a computer screen.

I click the mouse --
What joy! What fun
To watch the arrow
As its job is done.

Here's the Internet --
My favorite part!
Mousey clicks,
And here I start

The wondrous exploring
Of cyberspace;
But I'm not exploring much now,
For I've found my place

At forums, websites --
I've even made my own!
I hum contentedly
As my computer fan drones.

Life? I'm sorry,
I suppose
I should check eBay
And buy one of those.
