Alone At the Party

I posted my feelings to the website, and shared my most intimate fantasies, and most profound thoughts on grief and delight expressed through natural analogies, and even worked long and hard on rewrite to clearly convey glib analyses. Once it went online, I waited to see over the course of the next many days just what the impact of my words would be, anticipating that my thoughts would blaze among this literate community who would shower me with critique and praise. But, judging by the response to my post, I might as well be an Internet ghost.
