Overread at the Counter: Verble Reads His Poem

It's not often I write poetry, mostly I prefer to read it, but this one just came to me today . . . here toes:



Verble Searches the Internet

 

I am not

interesting in

meeting other

singles in my area

or seeing who

searched for me

or in losing weight

or in earning

$1700 a week from
home

or in seeing

how these people

bought a house

in Martha’s Vineyard

by creating their own

online start-up, I

only got on here

to look up

the lyrics to a

song I have half-

forgotten from

1972.
