Thank You For Leaving A Comment

Thank you for leaving a comment

A digital breadcrumb tossed into my forest

Letting me know at least one human being

Tripped over my post and survived

Thank you for typing with the courage

Of someone who has absolutely nothing to lose

You could’ve scrolled

You could’ve blinked aggressively and moved on

But no

You chose to press enter

Like a hero with Wi‑Fi

Your words arrived like a tiny clown car

Pulling up to my brain

Honking

Spilling out three sentences of chaos

And then driving away without paying for parking

Thank you for the depth of your insight

Whether it was a heartfelt paragraph

Or just lol

Both shook me spiritually

But in different tax brackets

Thank you for proving I am not shouting

Into an empty canyon

Where only my own voice answers back

Like a depressed ghost

Your comment was a knock

A tap

A hey bestie from the void

And honestly

It meant something

Not everything

Let’s not get dramatic

But something

Thank You

    A fave for the message so well sent in metaphor half disguised. How often have I thought where is the courtesy of the common man today that when greeted with a hello just walks on by no acknowledgement. A poem written deserves review and granted that one can not read them all but at least a few. So many want theirs read but do not show the curtesy to read others. How arrogant is that. Loved your approach to this. Very nicely done
