Behind a Title

the title the mask 
you find comfort in 
following me where ever I go
leaving a hint of  your name, favorite artist Lyrics
yet claiming a different Country 
As if I do not know who you are and why you have come here
I wish your intent was pure to write 
noticing the glory you have changed a profile 
and write through another claimed territory 
isn't this a form of plagiarism or Fraud 
I don't know what shall it be called 
let me be in peace

sorry " The Thrill is Gone " BB King . In any form of social media , there is the light and the dark . Cyber bullies do exist and plagiarism, it is a uncomfortable subject matter .

I am not sure ..is it ? This is a poem ..and yes it is inspired by true events , I am not pointing finger , just like when a singer sings " The feeling is gone " Eric Clapton , or old blues writer ..someone in the audience will think the singer is speaking to them .short answer , no.

Thank-you , I appreciate your perspective and this poem is causing a bit of a stir , but in poetry ..maybe that is a good thing . Go for your dream Karen , I understand why some remain hidden too .

I like perspective and creativity of this...Most writers (with any worth )will let their work to speak for itself. without regard tthe 'photo' in the profile. I would rather be judged on my work than a pretty face. I am writing a piece about changing my name... hope it doesn't cause too much suspicion ** SMILES**

Thank-you Kenneth , well, it is alive and well . I think to some degree , we all by mistake may write something that has been written , not because we intended to copy .This is My Dark cloud that follows me where ever I go . I have wonderful people I have met here , you are one ! Yvette

Hi Yvette First time I am stopping by, and found this poem to be very intriguing. I think your subject matter is probably something that needs to be addressed. Enjoyed the emotions behind this write.
