i miss the old internet
dialup screaming "get off the phone"
i miss the old internet
with weird little pages made by weird little kids

i miss the old internet
before the feed knew my name
i miss the old internet
before every scroll was a sale

i miss the old internet
and i think the old internet misses me too
