Why do I sit at the computer all day
Whiling weary hours away?
I think the nights must know me well,
Hoping for something to cheer my soul
I fear the sleep that steals my time
And while away another day.
I was talking to ~mcivercork at a bit after midnight and he said: "Why do I sit at the computer all day?"

I was in the mood so I wrote a short poem based on his question.

I do like this, although it has an apparent lack of metre. I read it aloud to myself, because usually that gives me a good idea of the flow in the someone’s verse. But the end left me hanging, as though this almost feels unfinished.

I think you could have taken this to other places and given it a little more length, but all in all it's effective in it's main message and imagery,

good work.
