I read a site on Monday,
Yesterday,
Last week…
Who cares?
It suited, reaffirmed experience.
Clicking forward on a link
There sprang a site in boldest form:
“A cheat! A sect!” with facts so vague
They hardly bear repeating.
Seed planted,
Comfort compromised,
Truths I knew were truths
Now insecure, unsure,
Shaken from someone’s mistaken
Sore-intended statements.
Unexpectedly, next day
Phone rings from India!
Did it show on Wikipedia?
Did he know? And how…?
“Madame, you are having problems with your Microsoft.”
With orders to download a site –
Slightly warning, slightly threat.
I scanned.
It was a scam,
A scheme
Which leaves me hours later
Fazed and steaming,
Seed well planted.
