The before time

Daily writing prompt

Do you remember life before the internet?

View all responses

All hear, of the of the forgotten times
The before space, a true dark ages

Time immemorial, without connection
Face to face speech, inefficiencies

Neighborhoods gathered, and fought
Without pages, practically savages

Children played together, and talked
Shared laughter, disease transmission

There may have been a time, before
But without a hashtag, how do we know?

I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.
