POEM STARTER
Feeling Known
Write a poem that could use this as its title or central theme.
Digital Footprint
You can cross the path of millions
And still be alone
You can stand before thousands
And still be unknown
Littered ‘cross the pages
Of backend websites
Lurking in the shadows
Of others’ spotlight
My IP address
Is just a hack away
My N.I.N
Is just a scam away
Yet I wander faceless
Through social media
Posting, yet nameless
It’s all so familiar
A one-hit wonder
(That no one’s ever heard of)
Posting poems post-era
Of Shadow Queens and Cannibals
I sip coffee in an empty shop
Of all my memories
Let’s post a poem that
will only get one read
