A Poem by Carey Lenehan
"

Recently noticed how many 'fan blogs' there were on networking sites and wrote this whilst wondering what level of obsession compels people to create a blog site in the name of their idol... is it cute, or kinda creepy?

"

I know everything about you.
When, where,
and how you were born.
The colour of your eyes.
The books you like.
Your favourite beer
and
what your dreams are


I know the grades you got
at school,
who cuts your hair,

who cooks your food
what things you like to eat,

how you like to sleep
and
the names of all your family.
But you don't know me.


I tell everyone, 'I'm yours',
because one day
I will be.
I post your picture on My Space
with your name as the title
research your bibliography
mention all your films
I'm not pretending to be you
but in my world
You are mine
we are cool
together, forever,
riding
on the crest of your fame


I dream about you all the time,
cannot tell the line
between reality and fantasy
You're follow the Bears,
love nights out on Broadway

and
advertise CK for Men
You like St Emilion and rare steak
You got your first acting break
when you were ten
but I didn't
know you then


Now you're a big star and I follow
everything you do
know every place you are
and when.
I watch all your shows
and believe
I'm the only one who knows
what you think of

when you get that

faraway look

in your eyes, or what you are feeling

when you sigh.


I'm your Number One Fan
I advertise it

to everyone I can

and
because I keep updating
your Fan Blog
and following every detail of your life,
one day,
I just know
we'll be best friends.

I've got a friend who is just like this about an actor she likes. It's almost scary. This is really well put together and expresses just what obsessed fans are like.
