Flash Poetry: Life’s Comment Section

Life’s Comment Section

Let’s face it:
Those people commenting on your
health
and safety
Don’t give a damn about
your health
and safety.
They want to make sure you know
they’re superior,
that they’ve got you
all figured out.
They want to watch you topple,
like the Berlin Wall,
like a falling star,
crumbling earth upon impact.
So here’s my advice to you:
Stop reading the comments.
The trolls will be forever fed-
but don’t let them feast on you.

You are a Phoenix, not roadkill.
