Ode to My Blog

Novena Writing Prompt 2/of 9 Odes

Ode to My Blog

Thou still not updated Bride of the Internet
waiting patiently in bloggerdom for my return,
Patiently waiting for updates, pictures, posts,
opinions read by no one, recipes untried, and declarations forgotten.

Facebook killed you my lovely.
As with all things American,
ease and convenience have pushed
creativity and effort away from the altar.

Are you still wearing your bridal veil?
Is your HTML gaze still inscrutable?
How long will your devotion last?
I have forgotten my password,

and your face.
