I should sleep, but how
Hard it is to resist the
Siren- Internet!

© Esti N., Stamford, CT

The author's comments:
Today, the draw of technology like the Internet is stronger than ever. Sometimes, this technology is a bad thing, like in this poem, because its attraction is preventing people from doing the necessary things, like sleeping or even homework. I think we need to learn how to balance our use of technology with what we need to do more, and not let these distractions knock us off the right path.
