Life On Dial-Up

Life on dial-up
It moves so slow
How would you feel
If the world was passing you by
Moving in highspeed while
You were on pause
Please press play for me
I can’t reach the remote
The buttons are melted off
And the batteries are dead
Please make the world pause
While I keep moving
Because I need to play catch up
Just this once

I'm not sure I like the way each line is capitalised, though that's a personal thing, and I think some punctuation would go well with this piece. Still, those are only small things, and I have to say, I like the sentiment in this poem enough that I could overlook them. Thanks for sharing!

Been there, done that, I appreciate the frustration, you gotta get cable. Nicely put into verse. Welcome to the forum.
