Everything is a database
and also a community.
I think that the node
i have just written
will garner me fifty XP.
I think the chatterbox is full of meaning
and i might learn something about myself
in my next response to a Getting to know you node.
Someone has noded their suicide note
just today . . .
What can i do? . . .
I would like to step out of my heart
and go noding within this enormous realm.
I would like to softlink to truth.
And surely of all the noders that wrote up their lives,
in painful and glowing words,
one has found happiness.
I think that I know
which one it is -
which one, sending his packets into the ether,
stands like an angel, holding enlightenment . . .

apologies to Rilke, JeffMagnus, and anyone else who thinks they deserve my apologies.
