A Mona Lisa

A Mona Lisa* by Jack A.S. Dunce From an exchange of simple Hi, Hello In a virtual world of bits and bytes, Shot straight through cyberspace by Cupid's bow, Your image shone bright through the mesh of lights. From texts rose the soul of an idea brought about by the dire need to escape mundane travails and life's hysteria -- imagination giving sadness shape. And it's the irony to this montage, Be it delusion or desparation, My image of you may be a mirage -- A self-portrait made in sheer confusion. I must not make your image with my pen, lest I draw Mona Lisa once again. --🏵️-- ©️pgmr 02/09/2025 *Revised
