Brave Coward, Friendly Enemy

Brave Coward, Friendly Enemy

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

.

"

they will open their profile

then close down their profile

(on repeat)

they will pretend to be "done" here

then make believe "reasons" to come back

(on repeat)

they will say they just want to write

then subversively beg for your pity

they will pretend to be stoic

then pretend to be sensitive

they will pretend to be sage

then pretend to be stupid

they will say they are humble

then pander for your attention

they will offer you friendships

then backstab you like cowards

they will show you one side

then carry on with another

they call themselves relics

then pretend everything's new

they are here all around you

pretending to be what they aren't

for your precious attention

for their pathetic eager ego

so. . . please, my dear enemies

do be very careful

for your "friends" here,

they may not be what they seem

maybe even far worse than me

(underneath)

Excellent choice in music. During Lent, I make my Twitter profile private. For some reason, this drives people crazy. Idk but, I could care less...I can't stand social media as a whole.
Thoughts?
