I saw her on Facebook, sent her a friend’s request
She added me, and then we also met on Twitter
For sometime it seemed that we’d remain unmet
For she had Gchat, I felt Yahoo was much better
Once where a poke or a LOL would suffice
She wanted us to meet, it caught me by surprise
I am fat and balding, my profile pic was photoshopped
She was comely, and witty, I felt my stomach drop
Reluctantly after a few weeks I have had to agree
My love story I think is coming to an end
We meet today, This is my poetic lament
For who would love a man so bald and chunky
===========================================================
The girl’s reply
Do not think that I am dumb or entirely lacking wit
As soon as you said you worked on the internet
I knew you were shy, had glasses and were fat
I had to break the ice, make moves, its a fact
I want a man with whom I can be comfortable and free
Not another male hunk who ogles at girls who are chesty
You techys will drool over gizmos and talk greek
And wont fuss if dinner is simple sandwich and coffee
If you like we can talk on chat box the whole day long
You wont know if I havent dusted or the curtain’s torn
You will drool over browsers, talk in HTML code
Why, you may even someday type me an ode
You never even noticed that my skin was pimply
That I am dark, plain and am quite skinny
I have met other men who are quite fussy
You dont know yet, I think it is you who I will marry
Its gonna be a great thing you just dont know that yet
Besides computer geeks earn a lot of money on the internet

Sab kuch – up until the girl’s reply – was same to same as has often happened in my jeevan. But uske baad, it veers into an obvious fairy tale and total bloody humbug… mere saaath aisa kabhi nahin huan hain! ;/

RT @Tweepak: Talking abt geeks & gals, do read this poem by @phoenixritu http://bit.ly/6WcSxH via @devakishor [...]
Really awesome! Have read something like this before as in points why dating a geek is better. Never heard its poetic version. It sounds like rap
Loved your template too. The comments section especially.
Thank you, thank you!! Would love to read the prose form too
I would have to look where it went. Long spiral web!
