1 Fish, 2 Fish, Catfish, Blue Fish

Silly fun-Multiple Online Personalities- It's a Real Thing

I have a ton of friends online

As far as the eye can see

It shouldn’t really matter

That half of them are me

Flickr account

Yep, got one of those too

Pictures posted of me and me

And me, not you

Maybe here, that's right

At the Writers Cafe'

Wonder if people in photos

Are really who they say

Just tweeted a tweet

About how I tweeted

Saying things the other me

probably would have deleted

And even good intentions

With the best plans laid

I found myself on Etsy

Buying craft the other me made

I don’t know why

And much to my chagrin

I like to pin things

The other me pinned.

My dating days once

Over on Match.com

I was talking to myself

And was still turned on

My book list on Goodreads

I had to read them twice

But mostly because books  

Are mine and mines biggest vice

Four accounts on Facebook

Add that to your shelf

You know you need a life

When you start to friend yourself

Here’s to hoping

That maybe you can see

A little of you in this post by me

And me

And me

And me

Oh and me

Author's Note

Some fun, inspired by the show Catfish. The only account I don't have is Twitter and I did close my Match.com account years ago. My photos are me, so you get what you see.

Tears all around I cried a bit a lot. That was and still my life. It's is sad. I hate it. but I loved the poem. Thank you for putting this poem on writerscafe. I sure hope other people like this as much as I do!

This is hilarious! I have cut my social sites down to WC, FB and Goodreads. I spend most of my online time here. My phone is old school, I only use it to call people. I love seeing people walking into walls as they are juggling there other selves on multiple sites. You penned this so well. Had me laughing out loud! Angi~

[Dye]

Thanks Angi- I have a hard enough time juggling my one personality. I don't know how people can have many and still function.

i love how you worded this:) i think we all occasionally have too much time on our hands and tend to spend too much time online

[Dye]

So true indeed. Some get so caught up, they create new people, and forget who they are. lol

[DW Collins]

Loved it. I am a fan of whimsical patterns in writing that whisk you along for a ride.

[Dye]

Thank you so much. What a pleasant compliment.

Thank you so much Dye, I needed a good laugh, this is excellent! Just talking about Catfish with another poet here, makes you wonder....who am I, where am I? lol...good one!

[Dye]

Thank you. I always laugh with that show. What do people expect. I did meet my hubby on Match.com, I think my first question was "do you have a web cam?" lol. Glad you enjoyed this.
