I say? Casual, electronically connected
acquaintances, perhaps. What else can I
say about folks I have never met face-
to-face.
Granted some I have met personally,
and some with whom I can relate are
more than worthy of my friendship.
I can certainly agree with that.
Another internet site to which I belong
claims that I have “followers.” Makes
me sound like Jesus Christ or Jim Jones.
I cannot abide either of those.
Some of you may choose to tag along
for a spell, but followers indicates I am
a leader and have something of value
to share. I would offer fair warning—
should I dispense free advice, turn
around and walk away. Taking my
own advice has at times lead to many
a miserable mistake.
Stand aside, I say, and lend me an ear
if you will, give me a glancing eye at
70-miles per hour passing by. On any
given day, as a fellow traveler, I may
afford you the same.
Consider me a series of roadside Burma
Shave Signs with a row of postings you
review in passing now and again ...
