Ghosting

Ghosting

Online friends or family,
So selfish,they.
You could be dead and buried,
How would they know?

These are your best friends,
They loudly pronounce, 
They deceitfully say,
Who cannot check emails for 
180 days?

Their sidewalk fell in, the washing
machine broke,
Their 40 year old kids have a toothache,
Or in need of a bloke.
Totally, a joke.

Here's my advice, it's childish,not nice!
Tell them to take off their pants
And slide on the ice.
Better yet, change your phone number
and Addy, too!

One need not be ghosted on this
internet zoo.
Just smarten up.
Ghosting is bad for you physically
and mentally.
