the look at me world

we are living in a world
where everyone wants to be someone.

to be heard,
to be famous for a few minutes,
an hour.

they need the light to shine on them.
to hear
the sound of clapping,
the sound of
laughter and admiration

in the form of

a multitude of likes.
to be seen and known.

who goes off to work,
who

leads a quiet and solitary life,
satisfied with

little more than love,
the beauty that lies within them.

enough joy
to last a lifetime.
