The World Wide Web
AKA "The World Wide Wait"
Why "Wait?"
Signs of the Times
A Feeding Frenzy of Information
And More and More
Feeding us past the level of
Gluttony
Not only - Faster and Faster
Contest after Contest
Between Million-Dollar Corporations,
Competing for Your
Undivided Attention,
Serving You Info Needed
And Unnecessary.
The Time Has Come
The Information Age
The Digital Highway
And the Digital Generation
Are All Here -
Now.
The World Wide Wait?
No, thank you,
I'd rather "wait"
For my lover's kisses,
A morning sunrise,
Fresh-from-the-print newspaper
Or a friend's new letter.
To slow down,
To savor every precious moment
Without the need for
Speed
Is the Real Key
To Today's "World Wide Wait"

Writer Profile
Mona Lisa
Greetings! My name is Mona Lisa. I'm a Filipina who was born and raised in Rome, Italy, and educated in American, international schools. I just recently discovered the joy and pleasure of writing and composing poetry and thinking up of story plots, characterization, etc. for both children's and adult stories...just haven't finished these yet! So for now, I'm sticking to poetry!
