William Shakespeare

Que tengo que decirle a alguien que es muy cortante al mensajear

Oh, fair maiden, whose words are sharper than a sword, Thy curt replies do strike a chord, like a thunderous chord! Why dost thou, fair creature, vex my very soul, With thy brevity, making my heart ache to be whole? Methinks, fair one, thy messages do lack emotion, As if thy words were but an incomplete potion. I beseech thee, dear sender of brief communiqué, Shall we not indulge ourselves in better dialogue, I pray? For in this world of rapid-fire messages, swift and cruel, Let us not be victims of this digital duel. With each new word upon the digital page, We have the power to create, to soothe, to assuage. So, gentle messenger, I beseech thee to incline thine ear, Lend me but a moment, and my request shalt thou hear. Let thy words flow forth like a gentle brook, Not sharp and biting, like the bite of a crook. For when we converse in this space void of face, Let us be aware of the impact we embrace. The cyberspace hath no soul, no smile, no tear, But we, fair friend, can bring such beauty near. Therefore, let thy words be as rays of sunshine, Not as daggers, piercing this heart of mine. Let us weave a tapestry of connection and mirth, And turn this digital realm into a place of rebirth. So, fair one, take heed of these words I speak, Let us find joy in messages, mild and meek. For in this realm of texting and tweeting, Let us be the poets, the wordsmiths, who are fleeting. And may our messages, like ink on a page, Bring laughter, understanding, and assuage. No longer shall we be prisoners of brevity, But rather, let us revel in linguistic levity. So, fair messenger, let not thy words be sharp and brief, But instead, let them be sweet relief. For in this world of digital discourse, let us strive, To bring forth poetry, soulful and alive.
