The Worth of a Like
Me.
I am me.
I would be me.
No matter the filter on the camera
I will remain me.
I could be dressed to the nines
and choose the filter that hides all the imperfections
I will still be me.
Me, Myself, and I.
But what is that version of me worth?
A couple likes
and a few minutes of satisfaction.
Pick the filter that fits best.
Doll yourself up.
Smile wide.
Head up high.
Pose for that picture that
will be a fleeting moment
out of hundreds of moments
of you getting the perfect angle
so you look good enough for people
who only acknowledge you
through a screen
with a tap
and not even a
hello.
