Ode to All Those Twitter Followers

leroy coffie
You don't know my name
You don't think I'm neat
You didn't follow me on Twitter
To listen to my Tweets

You never read my stories
You never say hello
You're just an acquaintance
I don't even know

You followed me here from Facebook
Like an unrelenting slug
Are you stalking me
Or is this another Twitter bug?

I feel a little anxious now
Depression is sinking in
You just ignore me
When I thought we were friends

You don't know my name
You don't think I'm neat
You didn't follow me on Twitter
To listen to my Tweets
