Oh Internet,
Grant me your presence today.
Grant me some of your bandwidth
To watch this video play.
Grant me the decency
To answer my mail.
Grant me the honour
Of your efficiency
Like you grant it to those living
In the big city down there.
Grant me these 2 mb
I daren’t ask for 4,
I don’t deserve more
For I am a low-life,
Living in the outskirts
In the void you evade
Deep into the mountains.
Grant me one or two downloads
So that I can survive this day.
Grant me this upload
That could save my work.
You led me out of a temptation
Called Pirate Bay
A bit forcibly
But wait! I am grateful
Just don’t take it all away
I humbly pray.
Glory to your Speed
Oh Internet!
