It Came Upon a Blank Space

It came below a screen door clear.
That glorious print of old,
from journalist toiling into the night
in prints italic and bold.

“Peace on the Earth” the headline read,
and many more wished it were true.
Now spread our words on the Internet,
and this is my wish for you.

Now in the stillness a decade ends
and we are of one accord.
Curse not the cursor that blinks at you,
but fill the space with your words.
