Virtual Realm

(Has the internet become our parallel universe?).


This, the one true otherwhere
the fabled unseen world
a fibre-optic parallel universe,
that clever men have sought
to study, know and visit,
pondered on for many decades,
the kingdom of differing sameness
where good is evil
reality unreal
and identities change to fantasies
back and forth seamlessly,
where man can walk on water
look, move and not be seen,
become a prince, king or emperor
voyeur, lover, thief or beast,
unfettered, ungoverned
rabid.
