Staring girls with weird names
make me feel like racing away,
but Yavi says he owns a computer,
and has IntERnet—global, not just
the island’s local IntRAnet!
So while my sister tries to show me things
she thinks are interesting—like her school,
a park, the post office, a church—all I can do
is hop up and down inside my mind
while I wait for a chance
to run across the street
with Yavi, and sit down
to face familiar flares
of dragon flames, roaring
from ravenous mouths. . . .
If there’s a forbidden satellite dish,
it must be well hidden behind all those
flowering red flame trees, yellow hibiscus,
and purple jacaranda.
But the connection is dial-up,
soooooooo
SLOOOOOW
but still
so amazingly
satisfying!
Now here I am, right back where I belong,
inside my normal world, the cryptic one
that’s hidden deep inside
this computer screen.
