crave
them skills,
those insights,
the oohs and ahhs
you hear their fans coo.
Let your own lack slap you,
simmer in your worthlessness,
then lash out hard with blind envy.
For the perfect salve to soothe failure
is attacking some stranger's great success.

Author Notes
Vicious unfounded attacks. False accusations. Envious slams. Par for the course here where anonymity means some kind of false bravado.
The hilarious thing is, gossips whisper TOO MUCH and become well known. Most everyone knows the source. :))
