Poem - Pixel Sparks

[kokopelle]

The poem “Pixel Sparks” was inspired by the impression that an unfiltered social media site is more revealing than the rest of a person’s outward world.

Pixel Sparks

Social media reveals the mind
an echo of the owner’s heart
with the words put to page
and the pics that illustrate

look to the themes that repeat
no matter how wild they may seem
the inner self has been exposed
in tales of joy and angst of woes

divergent from the owner’s type
first appearance is now a lie
when the curtain is pulled back
to announce true relevance

sureness found in humor’s breadth
along with lust that calibrates
identity brought to front
by the virtue of pixel sparks.
