Facebook Foyer

Facebook Foyer 7/4/2022

My house has many rooms
It's a goddam mansion!
My Facebook foyer
Is for the casual company

You know pictures of pets
And food and flowers
And inspirational memes
And pasted on smiles

But sometimes Barblings
Wanders through
And leaves a painting
Or knitting needles
She's messy that way

And sometimes Ramona's Daughter
Will plop down on the sofa
Triggered by the latest news
And gives her impassioned opinion
She is sensitive that way

Bohemian Swamp Witch
Lives in the very back room
Tangled in the cosmic web of life
She stays away from the foyer
And shallow conversation

And there are private rooms
For the ancestors and the dearly departed
And a nursery for So Awesome
To gush out her childlike awe

We used to have a family room
But we meet by group text now
And Ramona's Daughter
Has rented rooms on TikTok and Twitter
Agreeing to keeping the FB foyer presentable

And me--well today I'll be hanging out
With Barblings and Ramona's Daughter
For a hit of rowdy, raucous, raunchy laughter
And I'll have tea later with the Swamp Witch
To gather more insights and visions

But here in Facebook foyer
I'll post some cheery flowers
(Yellow, to not harsh your mellow)
And this little ditty
While I'm off feeding my soul.
Xoxo
