//...ICQ...(2007)





Get out.
I don't want to know people
They just slip away
& then I suffer & I cry
But they don't know that, do they?
I hate to be connected
To people
They just disconnect
like a broken modem
& a chat friend
goes offline.

People hate to know you.
'Cuz they start to love you
You get. Sick. Diseased.
Deceased.
Someone asked u to?
You go offline
Just like a contact
In i seek you

I don't want to seek you
But you somehow find me
On the streets
In the bus
In the supermarket
You buy cigarettes
I buy morphine
Killing ourselves calmly
Is how we start to
fall in love.
Then we go offline
I haven't sought u
on time

In my youth I'd tell you
I don't smoke
You don't drink
Why not hang out together
for a glass of wine
& a ciggie
some cancer
& asthma
To be on time
Connection error
User went offline

...online funeral, anyone?

Wonderful stuff, Edyta. Since I have a lousy internet connection, my friends are constantly dying online. Or am I killing them?

I hope you are well, my friend! Hugs and smooches from the three of us over here.

P.S. You're first on my latest post. I'm first on yours. :)

Edyta said...

Jay said...

Wonderful, but sad poem. People just go away in real life and online. They just go *poof* sometimes.

Crashdummie said...

Wow, that was really powerful edyta. Girl, you never seem to stop amaze me with your talents!

Edyta said...

Drama Diva!
Talent? naaaah :) not at all. though u made my day saying that u liked it :)

Edyta said...

Jay!
Thats right! thats the exact message i wanted to send to everyone! yaaaaaay! it's kinda sad :|

Edyta said...

Crashieee!
Whyyy r ya so sweet? Talents? What talents? :D

Gledwood said...

Yeah man that is good. And unlike my poems you don't write like it's still the year 1857 ... that IS good

Re the film I stole it of course for my video random blog

one question: are you over 5 foot 8 inches/170 cm tall?

c'mon you know why i'm asking that question!

Edyta said...

Gleds!
OMG! U ALWAYS CRACK ME UP! whahhahha :D like 1857 :D omg, even my eyes r teary from luaghter. i need to go to the mental hospital really!
i'm abt 1.73 or 4 or 2 hell knows. something like that. now really. WHY?

Gledwood said...

re the photos - be a model!

you must be at least 5ft 8in which is 170cm I'm sure

that is the minimum height for catwalk/"runway"...

easy money, eds. EASY MONEY!!

at least go to an agency and find out

you already seem to know people who can take your photobook for you.

do not pay any introductory fees seriously to any of these agencies

come to London - loads of work here then of course paris, milan, new york

come on!

Edyta said...

Gledss!
abt modelling :D haha, u want me to say good bye to FOOD? all that awesome wonderful FOOD? Those yummie tasty cooking posts? NOOOOOOOO! LOL!
I mean to become a model i have to be half size as i am. No food? But i LUV IT! hehe :D

Wandering Soul said...

its futile to tell u d special connection i have wid tis poem. was so much in sync wid ur words, read it like a slice of my life. served from a fren who knows me well;)

"People hate to know you.
'Cuz they start to love you"----very true. i indeed prefer my solitude to prevent another fall off. n dats wat me doin these days.

"I don't want to seek you
But you somehow find me
On the streets
In the bus
In the supermarket"--wen u run from sumthing u catch it at every knook n corner of ur life, so i stopped running frm it, i rather started chasing it n so it ran away from me, never to get back....

"In my youth I'd tell you
I don't smoke
You don't drink"--a gimmick so common to d youth, n sumhw works most of d times. Strangely....

Why did it giv me a feel dat u missing sum1? or missed sum1 at dat moment, or wanted to talk to sum1 but cudnt get him thru. if dats so...lemme knw....sumhow my hunches tell so.

Josh said...

Nice. It really strikes at the heart of the transitive, sometimes fleeting nature of relationships online. Friends seem to come and go much more easily online than in real life... for better or worse.

Dizzie said...
