A poem.. Snowly died of exhaustion after playing an MMORPG for several days without rest..
To Snowly [RIP]*

Sister, I have tasted your addiction
That never ending need for distraction.
As the sun lashes out with its fiery needles
As the people live out their meaningless lives
We tromp through highly rendered forests
Beneath breathtaking digital skies
In a world where losers become heroes
Where the meek become the strong
And anonymity sets our souls free.
But you stayed inside too long, my dear
You didn't stop to catch your breath
As fantasy and reality became intertwined
And the weight of your armor pulled you down.
Where did that last adventure take you, Snowly?
What strange portal did you open
And are you still inside?
Forever questing in dungeons deep...
