| Poe – Hello Lyrics | 3 years ago |

Poe.org was one of the first social media sites, she was very actively involved in online social media in it's earliest days. I am so bummed I missed it, along with passing on a Nirvana concert because I planned to see them next time it is the biggest regret of my young life. I believe she's looking for a specific person who's screenname she won't say because she'd have no way to distinguish him from an impersonating fan so she uses the abbreviation of his screenname or perhaps refers to him as an inside reference by calling him MOD, possibly referring to Masters of Deception either because he was one of it's members (unlikely, they're mostly identified) or maybe he was a hacker and they'd discussed MOD before. I believe she made this song a Billboard #1 dance hit of 1997 in order to find him. I don't know but badly want to know what some of the clues in the song mean (things like "MOD" and "chainlinked"), is there an archive of poe.org that I can read (I didn't realize, Ms. Danielewski, I knew you'd be online but didn't want to bother you if you were even findable; that's what took me so long) and most of all, did it work? Did she find him? Did she ever talk about the song in interview? Was it just a creative work of fiction? |
