A Sam Scott poem:

Listen to poem:

You made the right choice Sign right here, be a pal, oh.. One more thing can I ask? Though I know I seem shallow.. Could you just click a like? Or a heart, that would do I don't wish to impose, but It makes our friendship SO true Then I'll visit as well Send our numbers to maximal I do love you and this is In no way transactional You can stroke me and hug me With your words affirmational My reply will be Shakespearean Or at least dissertational When we're done with our tags Or the half dozen kisses With the hearts and the stars Loaded high with best wishes We can sleep safe and sound As with nuclear fission There's nothing to fear From our popularity mission xxxxxx

The title of the poem got my attention, and it is true that we want someone to pick our work to read and appreciate the work that went into it. Thanks for sharing it with us and for dropping by my page. Sara K

Attention and acceptance are already strong forces, now being monopolised by social media to feed us what we want to hear. Awareness is the greatest defence we have.. thanks for calling by Sara :)

Ah one reason why i seem a bit distant from insta, cus i see too many “ pick me “ people there, fame hungry. Unfortunately thats the reality in many places not just the younger generation but it seems like the new in thing. And youv as again conveyed your thoughts on that in a sassy manner! Very well written in a poetic way. I especially love “ My reply will be Shakespearean Or at least dissertational“ that has a fun tone to it too hahx clever! Loved this! A new fave for me this is.

I must indeed be getting 'sassy' in my old-age.. or perhaps my near- death experience (man-flu) has snapped me out of a malaise. Love hearing your comments as always, Ink. Blessings! :))
