I log onto
the Facebook site,
Safely snug
in my bedroom…
Researching
old acquaintances;
Their
successes and their doom.
Some pose
with yachts and Cadillac’s,
Grandchildren,
kittens, or pugs.
Alumni post
photos of old friends,
Lost to
cancer, booze or drugs.
So many
happy pictures,
“Are staged
and not quite true”…
That
comment, just my disgust
Of gurning
selfies right on cue.
