The End is near . . .

I believe my vision for Escape by Pen may of well . . . Let's say escaped away from me. I am in the process of creating specific blogs for specific purposes , rather than letting the content of Escape By Pen further dissolved into a smash pit.

Shopping online

In A Online Shop

Ha! Ha!

I’ve been in you’re shop

And you did know who I was

So OK I gave you my name

And perhaps where I lived

But to what I look like

And how I spoke

You do not know

You could judge I

Who sat in my wheelchair

And struggle to speak

Nor could see the trouble I have

Just to click my mouse

On the item I wanted

Nor the shaking of my hands

Just to hit the right key

No matter what I asked

Or purchase from you

You bundled it up

And it came to my door

Happily you email me

Your quotes and ideas

Without questioning `Will I understand?’

You can’t make assumptions

So often made by the way look

I have just shopped with my intellect

Not my mouth, feet or hands

Thank you for your service

I shall come again! 

Some thoughts

Online

Online I can chose be no one

Invisible to the human eye,

Online I may choose to make my mark

By the way I create and build my profile.

Online I present like anyone else,

No one can see how different I am,

Online my disabilities are hidden

Unless I don’t want them to be,

  

Online I can be me

Nothing is gained by pretences,

Online no physical barriers exist

Between me and others in the online world,

Online it doesn’t matter if you’re

Fat or thin; tall or short, white or black,

Online I am like everybody else

Putting my thoughts, feeling and opinions out there,

Online my words count

As much as the next person,

No one challenges the validity of my words

Due to misconceptions of who I may be,

 Online my general appearance reflects

That of anybody else. . . Online

Online my thoughts, feelings and opinions,

Go unquestioned.

Offline. . . The reality is

I know we all judge others,

Online . . . Just as we judge others

When we’re Offline.

Online the difference is

They too are invisible to me,

Online unless people tell me direct

I can’t see how they react!
