There needs to be a
Word for real people with
Whom one interacts –
But with whom one is sure one
Will never meet face to face

Notes to this poem…
What is the word for
People willing or wanting
To be friends with you –
So long as your friendship does
Not evolve past preset points?

I am not her friend –
Cause she’s looking for someone
With current status –
Rather than friends who will have
Status for eternity

Getting out of jail –
Before your prisoner friends –
Is so bittersweet –
Especially when no one
Were guilty of anything

Some people prefer
Their fashion to be classic –
Rather than drastic –
Bombastic or Jurassic –
But it’s not what I prefer

Time to say good-bye –
To my six months a year friends

Notes to this poem…
A little girl sang
Some Matilda songs for me
On this ferry ride –
I sung Aladdin for her
Because she didn’t know it
