Contributor Series 4: Aspects of the Elephant, Virtual Love

Contributor Series 4: Aspects of the Elephant
Virtual Love
By Joan McNerney

A
long
slim
poem
full of hyperbole
and alliteration drifted
into the wrong e-mail box.
There she met an erudite
rich text format manual.
They became attached.
Her fleeting metaphors
lifting his technical jargon.
They were a word couple
spinning through cyberspace
giddy with inappropriate syllables.

Joan McNerney's poetry (Shhhhh ..., Birthday Present, Lost Dream) has appeared at vox poetica in 2009 and 2010.
