"Jacqueline, We Need to Talk" aka haiku'ed's answer to "Trapped in a Closet"

my world changed today.
the web was so innocent,
I just wanted friends.

oh, little Jackie,
I saw some pictures today,
they made me blush so.

your "tagged photos," are...
and oh dear, that "wall" of yours,
Jacqueline, let's talk.
