My Two Selves
Real self,
Of flesh and blood
The warmth of mother’s womb cast out
An unknown world
Virtual self,
Lifeless digital, on
Social platform
Media run
Parents pride
The touch, the feel, the squeal
Of life, a miracle
Created out of love
Cold statistics,
Distance travelled, races run
‘Friends’ in hundreds, ‘Kudos’
‘Sharing’, ‘Likes’, Well done!
A Divine Creation
All with different thumbs
Man-made likes
Are just for fun
