I try to use Facebook only for Marketplace and it still manages to steal the precious moments from me.
What is the actual point of it besides being a massive income stream for the already rich.
Friends meet for coffee where words are supported by body language.Facebook friends are so many other things but mostly they’re just words.

99% of social media is trash. Go old school and meet people on the street or at places of social gatherings. Awesome write my friend.

Thanks H. YouTube is another one of my vices. But I totally agree about how they alleviate angst- and that’s no small thing since there is so much of it today.

Super good write, Pink. I have to tell you that I ended up in Facebook jail too often to continue the experience. Well, you know. I’m just that kind of outlaw.

Thanks, Adira. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for letting me know.

Facebook is hard

Life is easier

How the heck do you even use Facebook… I can’t even get it to work…

OMG… am I that old?!

Pink, I spend far too much time on facebook. It is a sea of chaos and confusion I find. Your poem is very wise and you see social media with clear eyes. Like Emerson said, “As if we could kill time, without injuring eternity.”

Has anyone figured out how to edit on this site? There’s a change I want to make.

Please go to the dashboard. There is a pen. Click on it and you can edit your work.

Awesome write. Dreams and nightmares are our warped realities.

Yes, you understand what I was saying. Thank you.

Exactly, Indie. Thank you.

Love this entreaty poem. Indeed we seek a way out of the darkness and it often helps to have a helping hand from someone we can trust. Truly a beautiful nocturne poem that resonated in the chambers of my soul.

Love the ending of this, and I love the succinct texture. You add depth as you go until the whole piece becomes a metaphorical journey. I like where you take this.
