Alas, poor Yorick
he used to come to parties and dinners,
go on dates with beautiful women,
and engage in interesting conversations.
Yorick was the life of the party,
something of a jester, famous for
his stand up comedy routines and pranks.
But Yorick got hooked on Virtual Reality.
He stopped visiting, stopped talking with friends
and neighbors, stopped shopping, stopped joking.
People said he wore the same motley
bathrobe for weeks, maybe months.
Eventually, he stopped eating and he became
so addicted to VR that he died mid-play
and no one found his body until it was
just a skeleton, his headset still on,
the game still going.
