seems to me <\/span>
that FB & Twitter
are killing the blog empire<\/span><\/p>\n

that’s blog not borg LoL<\/p>\n

many people that I’ve read for years
have given up the fine art of blogging
of telling a story
of expression of self
for the quick gratification
of posting one or two sentence
status updates
for all and sundry
<\/span>
people around the world come off<\/span>
as wordy and pithy<\/span>
by simply posting wee tiny tidbits<\/span>
of prose or profundity<\/span><\/p>\n

without havin to work<\/span>
to purvey an original thought
they just post a little
<\/span>something to whet the appetite <\/span>
of the masses of “friends”<\/span>
they have listed<\/span><\/p>\n

but wait….<\/span>
maybe that’s it!<\/p>\n

<\/span>maybe it’s so much work<\/span>
to come up with a couple of sentences<\/span>
that look or sound profound<\/span><\/p>\n

that the very act of blogging <\/span>
is just way too much like work
for them<\/p>\n

maybe it’s too hard to create a paragraph
after spending all that time
updating status’ from work?
<\/span>
for me<\/span>
there’s plenty afoot in my life<\/span>
but I’ve been threatened
more than once
by people that I find unsavory
unethical or just plain mean
people who profess to be
too good to read
but come all the time…
(did ya think I wouldn’t notice?)<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>so I can’t (for the moment)<\/span>
address my important life issues
in here<\/span><\/p>\n

but when the tide is out
and this wave passes<\/span>
you watch me go!<\/p>\n

and in the meantime
I too will be
one of those
that just sounds profound
one sentence at a time
on FB or Twitter.
