Relationship Rhetoric
I am oh so popular
when I chat online -
a cyber-celebrity,
naughty or divine.
Depending on who
I am “talking” to -
a hip hop hotty
or poetically inclined
- a feminist here,
a debutante there -
a broker, a hunk,
a mom or a queer.
Log on now
and read my mind -
I promise to be
whoever you need.
( The curious thing
is how much I bring
the best of me
to anonymity.
Like Dustin Hoffman
in Tootsie's dress,
when I step into the Web
I step into my best. )
I am glamorous, amorous,
brilliant, sympathetic!
Welcome to the future
of relationship rhetoric.
