a poem of sorts written in realtime in a chatroom
an experiment in chat

(I was sitting in chat all by myself and thought of the time differences between the scattered members of .... and I thought how difficult it must be to love someone on the other side of the world, how difficult to co-ordinate the speaking of words of love, the not knowing what is transpiring over there, can she talk, is she busy, that type of thing. So I wrote something for all those who suffer from this condition - I hope you find a solution. Regards, ghost)
