Double You See Slo-Mo (Inspired by Pryde's WC Review)

I hope you get to read this soon

 

 

 

 

Double You See Slo-Mo

 

 

I posted this poem

And then had to wait

Minutes then hours

It was getting late

 

The captcha was right

All the boxes filled in

Still that little symbol

Continued to spin

 

I sat and I watched

Soon realizing

The motion so steady

It was hypnotizing

 

I started to dream

Of a wonderful site

Where minutes weren’t hours

And days were not night

 

I could leave a review

Answer some mail

Like a jack rabbit

Not like a snail

 

Frieda was happy

Pryde was around

Rita and Angi

And Emma were found

 

Roses were writing

Keith passing through

Sami, Doc Brown

Girl Friday there too

 

Icelandicblue

and Lydi online

I forgot that we lost

that screen for a time

 

Cassie and Angel

Tammy and Traci

Reds there and Robbie

with poetry racy

 

Anto complaining

He paid his bills

Why if it's summer

Does he have the chills 

 

Rapidly moving

From here and to there

Never a worry

Hardly a care

 

Yawn, I just woke up

From a wonderful dream

Four hours later

Still the same screen

 

If I had a wish

What I’d wish the most

Sometime this year

My poem would post

Thank you for reading...hopefully

OMG this is sooooooooo funny and soooooooo true! WC has its faults with the way our poetry loads, but all in all, it's worth the wait. I think of it as a site that gives us time to think about what we are posting, write a new one, delete an idea, etc, etc. while the site does its thing!
I have been on other sites and this one is by far the most "user friendly", though I can do without the politics of it. Why we can't just write, enjoy our relationships and have fun is beyond me! Isn't that why we do it?
Anyway, let me end my rant, and say once again..........a welcomed, amusing write!!

[Jack...]

Thank you so very much Sheila. I appreciate you kind words and your rant and love that you stopped by today.

[ANTO]

Things would be different if we all paid our ISPs and WC had advertising - wait - we DO and WC does ...
Okay WC whats the racket?

Great fun write Jack. Well done

[Jack...]

Thanks so much my friend. I should have had you in there as well.

[ANTO]

Im trying to keep a low profile Jack ;)

[Jack...]

Too late my friend. you are in there now.

[ANTO]

OMG - you're like Lightning Jack - lol

Thanks my friend.

[ANTO]

[Jack...]

Thanks so much. Just having a little fun at the expence of WC.

[smilempsn]

..hehe.. Well by writing such pieces, the fun is indeed for all of us.. :)

[Jack...]

Thank you again.

[Pryde Foltz]

Jack as always your poem has made me smile, and this one a giggle
which is a relief because with the last one, my toes were a wiggle
(a wiggle in a good way)

Some bad mojo on here the last few days and this one remembers the love. So thank you, dear friend.

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Pryde. After reading your "WC Reveiw" I thought, well there's more things out of whack than just the 25 characters, so let me add to the fun. Glad you liked it. Bad mojo huh? Well, I've been through enough on here to last me for quite a while. Thanks again for taking the time to read this and comment.

[Pryde Foltz]

Amen to that.

[Marie]

THis is hilarious. I wait for this site to load, and I wait...and wait...and wait...

Things were worse once...W/C actually lost my account, and I had to start over again. For a time after that all went well.

Now I wait..and wait...and wait...

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Marie

[Ken Simm.]

Excellent and witty Jack. Been there done that, bought the t shirt.

[Jack...]

Thanks Ken, I ordered the t-shirt a month ago, it still hasn't arrived.

[Ken Simm.]

I think they are still growing the cotton.

[Marie]

Then it has to be spun...woven into cloth...you'll wait...and wait...and wait...

[Lydia Shutter]

Absolutely delightful writing here, Jack! I can relate! There are times WC will not even open to begin with for me. Then, when I do access the site, getting a comment to post is a grueling task. You said it so well in perfect rhyme and smooth rhythm. Loved it. Lydi**

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Lydi. Thinking I should have had you in there someplace as well. Let me see what I can do about that.

[Lydia Shutter]

No need.....but thanks for the thought!

[Jack...]

Too late, I already did.

[Lydia Shutter]

:) Just noticed that! Thank you, Jack. You are a sweetie! Lydi**

[Angi]

Ha! That little spinning thing gets yelled at regularly around here! So happy to see I am not alone, there. My name is up in lights next to some shining stars! Thank you, Jack. The Roses writing and all the rest had me grinning. Angi~

[Jack...]

Thanks Angi. I think you could call this poetic whining.

[shallimarRose]

lmao... I so understand this.. they really need to do an upgrade here.. someone call Kevin.. lol
Fantastic write Jack.. loved "the roses were writing and Keith passing through.. Honored by the honorable mention you give us poets.. xo Rose

[Jack...]

Thanks so much sweet Rose.

[shallimarRose]

you are always welcome.. xo

[Dye]

[Jack...]
