Facebook Sonnet



I whisper to the swirling shouting nights
When none can hear but rushing barking cars
And none can see but buzzing warehouse lights
That, empty, miss the soundly sleeping bars.

I whisper of my faded sea-salt smiles
That none but me gives thought to like or share.
Just hasten to ignore forgotten files.
Make room for grumpy cats and calls for prayer.

The tiny floating iridescent dreams
That started from a thoughtless given kiss
Are lost amid the daily squeeing memes
My words are gnat-like fluff that none will miss.

I whisper still but know that no one hears.
My life is useless pain that no one fears.
