Word Up

After you click
or poke
the button
labeled send

A little piece of you

now belongs
to the Universe

Your words splattered
on the public register

You never know who
will read you
under the microscope
of interpretation

Perceptions of
a mass audience
you will never meet
 
Most will breeze by
or delete you entirely

A few
may choose
to interact

Investing their time

for a worth while exchange

of humanity

on the great

interactive stage 

These exchanges

Millions every day

fly over
cultural walls

Someday the barriers

of ignorance will fall

Shattered by knowledge

Online friendships forged

Cause you can't
very well kill
your online buddies

and to think

Utopia 

begins and ends
with flying words

We all have the power
at our finger tips

Make the most
of this amazing gift
