Why You Can't IM Me
Sorry - just send me an e-mail?

To all who try to IM me,
I must confess to this...
I'm so impaired I cannot see,
My way out of this mess.

My Pop-Up Blocker just says no
When people try to chat.
I'd like to say hello to them,
But it won't allow me that.

It's probably just as well you see,
It almost is a crime,
The hours I spend in front of this screen,
My family too, would like some time.

If I could instant talk to you,
Kind people on this site;
I'm afraid I'd end up firmly glued
To this chair, and that's not right.

So please don't be insulted,
Or think I'm being rude,
When you try to Instant Message me,
And lack of response implies a prude.

I'm really kinda nice you see,
And I'd love it if instead?
A normal little note you'd write
E-mail won't implode my head!
