I was thinking,
As a Silver Member
Of a web site, a per'c 'could be
The ability of showing your name
On the Gold Members page, maybe
Once a month. I was
Thinking what a stupid thrill it
Would give, once being a GM,
But, not always wanting to be displayed
As I logged-on.

Unfortunately, now,
No price tag could lure
Me into such revenue
Of rat-trappings… been
There, done that.

Of course, my name would have a
Symbol beside it, denoting me
To My place. I don’t like I thoughts
Of this, but, it could be lucrative,
INterNET-wise. If I was.

I was what was,
Just then that. Only, I’m really pissed off!
My childhood was.. unique, as much as it could
Be. I need to share it, and I’m bursting with silence.
More like suspicion than gratitude.
Once a month, but, much more, my name
Thinks what a stupid thrill it
Is, being me. Then, reality displays itself,
Even when I’m logged-off.

I was thinking…
