If your life is unfulfilling
and you wish to disappear,
I have just the machination
so that no one knows you’re here!
🪄
Just follow these instructions,
it’s simple, you will see
and step by step, you’ll fade away
in anonymity
🪄
For social interactions
you’ll want to go online,
and no more get-togethers
they’re a massive waste of time!
🪄
𝓕𝓪𝓬𝓮𝓫𝓸𝓸𝓴, 𝓧 and 𝓣𝓲𝓴𝓣𝓸𝓴
and even 𝓘𝓷𝓼𝓽𝓪𝓰𝓻𝓪𝓶
all lend themselves quite nicely
to this ‘disappearing’ plan
🪄
When it comes to entertainment
there’s no need for going out
you can stream your shows on 𝓝𝓮𝓽𝓯𝓵𝓲𝔁
from the comfort of your couch
🪄
And as for your employment,
the office is a bore
so why not work remotely?
(and remotely work, I’m sure)
🪄
To reduce your public outings
I think it would be smart
to 𝓤𝓫𝓮𝓻 𝓔𝓪𝓽𝓼 your dinners
and to shop with 𝓘𝓷𝓼𝓽𝓪𝓬𝓪𝓻𝓽
🪄
Next, 𝓟𝓱𝓸𝓽𝓸𝓼𝓱𝓸𝓹 your pictures
so you won’t be recognized
(everybody does this,
it’s a modern-day disguise)
🪄
. . . and now one final measure
to get you off the grid:
go digital nomadic
and you’ll be covertly hid
🪄
Soon no one will remember
the you of yesterday
and this is how you disappear
and slowly fade away
👻
