THE INTERNET GIRL She's at her computer and surfing the net Straight from the shower, her hair is still wet The first thing she then does without fail
Louis Sacksen, from East Harling, has written many short stories and poems over the years, and published some of them himself in a paperback that sold very well locally. Are you a poet from Norfolk or Suffolk? If so, we’d love to hear from you! Email a selection of poems and a bit about you to editor@village-people.info for the chance to be featured in a future issue.
Is reading last night’s incoming mail She’s oh so excited this very minute Checking her mailbox and see what’s in it Clicking on Chat Rooms, Twitter and Tweet To see how many friends she can meet On Facebook there are a hundred and five All giving details about their happy life Her name, sadly, never seems to appear Why she lists them as friends isn’t quite clear And then almost each Saturday night She’s looking for love on a free dating site Searching there for the man of her dreams Who does not exist, or so it seems She’s texting a pop star daily on Twitter He never reacts and that makes her feel bitter She has a desktop, tablet and mobile phone And can’t understand why she is so alone The world all around her is so cold and black But all she needs is her old happy life back.
