Christopher Flaherty Poet Free verse

Slam Avatar Troll

It must be like any other Sad day in Lonelyville 
So bad
The last of the 6 mangy Cats
Have shuffled past her open window

Some call her Ratty
Some call her Tatty
But to most she is known as Spinster Batty

She gets her kick's daily from throwing 
Brick's and Barbs
At passing Cars
Because her family gave up visiting long ago
She has no friends and neighbors avoid her
But its hard to ignore her

Because she gets her kick's 
Behind the anonymity of a computer screen

She exists solely as a troll online 

Because she can't interact with human kind

For she revels in causing suffering 
It makes her feel like she is a big deal
But here's the thing
Those she bates 

Can still await at knock at there front door
Or a well timed telephone call
From a real person who wishes them well

While all she has 

Is her Avatar as a Sleazy Troll
So scroll away
Dig away you poor lost soul
If it in anyway fills your gaping hole

Lyric Man June 29, 2018 at 7:42 PM Christopher.. thank you for your support. Honestly I do need it and , no.. you would never walking a stalker. They invade your privacy and your family. It's a power play for them, thinking the can effect someone known. Eve thought all my love songs were really about her. She is mentally ill and I feel bad for her. She even faked a suicide over my "Lying Eve" poem. Thanks again! Christopher Flaherty June 29, 2018 at 8:27 PM Wow that's harsh I didn't mean to make light of a horrible situation sorry. Not good sorry my friend. I wish you well

Jan Allison June 29, 2018 at 6:49 PM Bravo Chris, at the end of the day no one really knows who is behind the keyboard and sadly folks like this are out there as poor Lm has found out. he was driven away by her a couple of years back but he is back for good - you can see the support he has:-) hugs Jan xx Christopher Flaherty June 29, 2018 at 6:59 PM Still find it puzzling why anyone would waste there time doing this . Must be on the dole or be dosed up on reality telly. Shame wouldn't give them the satisfaction better to engage them and show them up for what they are. They can't surely be that bright
