““There was a significant positive correlation between time spent on Facebook per day and two of the personality variables: neuroticism and total loneliness,” the researchers report…Lonely people passively navigate it, observing the life that is passing them by."
In night’s dark silence
I search you
Scanning images of parties
I didn’t attend
In tree filled yards on sunniest of days
Women with shiny hair clutch
children in smocked dresses, wearing monogrammed ribbons
Open mouthed grins
Reveal sparkling straight white teeth
Everyone everywhere
Sipping wine in Napa, skiing at Sugar Bush,
Arm-in-arm atop the Rockies,
Surrounded by tulips in Amsterdam,
Dancing at weddings, covered in tulle
All of you
Radiating sunlight
I sift through your lives
In my unlit room
