So it seems the standard for

Online affection is Perfection.

 

And I will continue to offer

This seemingly perfect picture

For the pleasures of strangers.

 

But behind the screens,

My people like me for reasons

Not social media.

Follow me for reasons

Not photoshop.

And love me for reasons

Not perfection.

 

If Goofy strips perfection,

Then I tarnish my perfection

For those I care for.

 

And if Professionalism demands

Perfection, so be the appearance

Of my online presence.
