For the WDC Short Shots contest.
Short Shots Image Prompt (April 2016)


Oh internet, how you amuse me!
With your abbreviations
and self-policing sanctions
and sanctimonious pseudo-harmonies...
how dare you?
I'll tear you down
with a punctuation virus bot
that cleans up your indiscretions
of the verbally aesthetic kind
so I can impose my will
comma
by semicolon
period.
In parenthesis
when someone plugs me back in
ellipsis.

Free verse, 16 lines.
