Like a digital shadow, you lurk in my feed,
Clicking my posts like it’s oxygen you need.
You lurk in the comments, you scroll through my past,
Your devotion to me is truly steadfast.
👀
Every refresh, there you are once again,
My number one stalker, but you won't hit 'add friend'.
You're boosting my traffic, inflating my views,
So here’s my sarcastic but heartfelt “thank you.”
👀
Without your obsession, who knows where I’d be?
You're hiding away hoping no one will see,
But thanks to your lurking, my words get exposure,
You’re turning my posts into viral composure.
👀
So stalk on, dear reader, careful to not hit that heart,
Your fandom’s a masterpiece. Performance art.
I’ll cash in the clicks while you hover and stew,
My success owes a little… ironically… to you.

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.

This is the kind of witty clapback social media needs more of.
Fierce & Flyy! Go gurl! 💪🏾
No matter what they say or do, they're still thinking of you. I got a little giggle when reading this one
I love this. It made me smile. Such perfect analogies! Take this poetry ten years back into the past and no one would have a clue. I especially like, "Every refresh, there you are once again, My number one stalker, but you won't hit 'add friend'." ⚡💙Bill ⚡
Hahahahahahahahahaha! I wonder why some people are so obsessed like this
Oh, I love this.
