To Whom It May Concern (2002)

I was asked to write something using the word "interactive".

If I write not for you
To whom is this written
For someone so smitten
Or, just a rhyme to do.

 

A kitten, a kitten
So cozy to the touch
Doesn’t ask for much
Only a lap for sittin’ 

 

Ethereal concepts to clutch
Speaking not without stammer
Seeking only a bit of glamour
Am I asking too much?

 

Little gray cells they do clamor
And spark all about
Oh, to shout
How’s my grammar?

 

Riddled by doubt
Not knowing the sound
Running like a hound
Searching for the route.

 

Looking all around
Feeling so unattractive
Writing so reactive
The answers do abound.

 

Living life interactive
And charting a way
Knowing not the stay
Yet things so attractive.

 

Like night and day
The things we do
The thoughts of you
Of words to convey.

 

I bid you not adieu
For we are interactive
In thoughts so attractive
You and me, so true.
I write for you.

 

(alternative ending)

I bid you not adieu
For our paths now interactive
In words so attractive
I write to you.
