Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

Id love to know your names
instead of make believe
i know im distant
but only in response
im in need of camaraderie
forgive my selfishness

read the introductions-

If the poem is taken as a poem and not a statement to other forum members here----I think the poem comes off successfully in a way----it is the statement of an alienated speaker to a society at large. The speaker has been living in the make believe and is looking for real friends and acquaintances.

too many names= not enough meaning

Hello, Marcus!
My name is Doreen.
I know what you mean.
I, too, need camaraderie.
So do all of us. (rhymes with Marcus)

I liked your poem.
Welcome home.
