Irony Poem by Doris Cornago

Can you imagine the irony of me
Running after you and the struggle
To get upper hand in the scuffle
You give in most just for the record -

Funny you and me encountering
In this barren emotionless cyberspace
Laughing with derision at my inconsistency
Loving one moment and hating the next -

As I in your dreadful emotionless world
Not a Greek, but a geek, when I am hoping
For one turbulent, I encounter a geek
Placid with no mind for turbulence -

You're a philosopher, while I am the dreamer
I like traipsing, singing, going my merry way
But you said halt, look, there's a sign in the road
Which says don't, beware, but free, go anywhere -
