£~`•Fake Reality√π÷×€
tisk, tisk, tisk…
maybe I’m just crazy
wasting my time in a cyber world
learning to care for imaginary frenemies
giving yet not given in a fAkE rEaLiTy!!
people who don’t know me
feel the need to judge me
stand so tall against me behind a screen
when did I become the sane one?
turning the other cheek to an army of avatars
anger, pain, sadness, greed…
are real even in fake reality
mortal to a God
seeking to unite the world
or just scream that you’re the antichrist
but where are your credentials?
fighting for false glory
pretending you’re a fairy princess
well I guess all things are possible in
bIzArRo WoRlD!!
down is up and up is down
cheering on insanity, shunning the artistry
love, happiness, friendship, need…
are real even in fake reality
how does it go?
…oh, that’s right!
it’s all just mental masturbation
feeding a fantasy
holding on to lost dreams
disconnect with words unsaid
then come back like born again
the price is harsh for opening the trojan horse
so much vain entitlement
people willing to throw you under the buss
but I won’t deceive you
not gonna tell you all my truths ether
that’s what the sane people do in a fake reality
maybe I’m just crazy
wasting my time in a cyber world
learning to care for imaginary frenemies
giving yet not given in a fAkE rEaLiTy!!

"anger, pain, sadness, greed… are real even in fake reality

I still do the caps thing from time to time 😁 This is an older poem, but I think it's so true. How people treat this like reality. How they cheer on others insanity, yet overlook real poetry. Like a playground for sure 😂 Thanks my friend for enjoying 🤗

I agree, poetry seems to get pushed aside for drama. A lot of frienships are found here, but we should never forget the reason we came.
An enjoyable read...

I find it to be such ashame. It's like I can't comment on this person because this person don't like them. Or other drama. It has always been about poetry for me. I truly do adore it. I enjoy all the poets on this site, but it's hard sometimes not to get pulled into crap. Thanks for enjoying and getting my poem 🤗

What a brilliant and interesting write!
Have to say as fake as some cyber friendships might be...
For me I feel the opposite as the anonymity allows me to be exactly who I am without fear of judgement or exposure...so for me it's the outside world that's fake and full of frenemies 😁
You'll always get judged by someone you can't be everyone's cuppa tea but I'm happy to read you with two sugars 😘

I totally agree about the freedom. If it wasn't for that, I probably wouldn't be on this site. But some people take that freedom too far and are a bit disrespectful, or delusional. And yes, i am not so perfect when it comes to that ether. This write includes me as well, lol. You are too sweat ^^ haha two sugars :-)

may be a redux but its incredibly relevant
anonymity turns folks into arseholes
glad some are still keeping it real

"anonymity turns folks into arseholes" I think that sums up the whole poem... hahah ^^ It's not always easy being cheesy ;-) Thanks for enjoying

A terrific piece...many hide and spew for fear or jealousy but we need to push past them...true friends will show their kindness and compassion without looking for praise...enjoyed Tim
