To Anni Pon

Blogging is a bust. My blog collects dust.

I'm tired of begging, shedding, getting hurt.

It has no ambiance, no audience, spare purpose.

Even my focused blogs don't work.

People prefer re-posting memes and monetizing rage;

AI pictures of people and flowers instead of the real thing [reality].

It's the age we live in... sadly.

Newsfeed is a good option. A short blogette for those who want soundbites with a link for those who want more.

...

Lost in the night, feel the bedbugs bite
and the mosquitoes buzz.

Lost in nightmares, angst and regrets,
trapped in [dying for] what never was.
