Wondering About An Avatar

WONDERING ABOUT AN AVATAR I often wonder why people post Pictures of themselves on line I have no avatar of me And that suits me just fine But should I post a photo For everyone to see They may really want to know If that picture depicts the real me So I choose to be incognito And let you think what you will Is there a story behind it all Is this guy actually real? The truth is that I am indeed A genuine article for sure But I'm going to allow you to wonder To see if you can endure The curiosity no avatar brings That causes you to muse What is this man hiding? Why does he refuse? To show his face to the rest of us So we can plainly see The man behind the poems he writes Just who can this man be? 12 November 2017

Curtis, not everyone has a photo of themselves. Either you want to, or you don't. That is up to you. Have a nice day my friend.

Ah, yes, the incognito person! You could do what most people do and find a cool picture that represents yourself to some degree and use that for your Avatar! I think that they are a lot of fun these Avatars are! I had one of a picture of me, but it was too old, I don't look like that anymore! And I don't have a good picture of myself to post! So I have found a cartoon representation...fun! You write is a lot of fun too, I enjoyed the rhythm and flow of it, very professional! Great Work!!
