OLD BOYFRIENDS IGNORING ME ON FACEBOOK
by Bryan Borland
I wonder if it was hard
on you to make the choice
between confirm and ignore,
remembering your hard on
underneath our shared blanket.
I wouldn’t have sent
a friend request to your wife
or your father.
I wouldn’t have gushed
white flattery on your wall
or poked you
after ballpark swigs of German beer.
I was only going to tell you
you’re on page 33
and 82
but then,
you already knew that,
didn’t you?

Never deny a writer. lol Nice poem Bryan.
Haha thanks Paul. Vengeful poems are always fun. I highly recommmend.
mmmm … quite sexy.
Thanks Sparrow!
The thing I always enjoyed about studying Shakespeare was his use of delayed irony…and I just love it when life gives us a chance to use it…nice poem Bryan.
Thank you, slpmartin. I dig that, too.
“I wonder if it was hard
on you to make the choice”
I just couldn’t stop laughing. Excellence, again.

I couldn’t help myself!
Hilarious – gotta love a facebook poem. Especially the ‘or poked you
after ballpark swigs of German beer.’
You always pick out my favorite lines, Gabrielle! I wonder if we’d order the same thing if we went to dinner together.
Well I know one thing – we both won’t be ordering the whale meat!
Fear of being outed. My exes are not scared of this and instead friend me. Except for that one.
I like the tone, though I sense more resentment/negative emotion of some sort in it than hilarity. Perhaps I’m projecting.
The only projecting you’ve done involves projectile vomiting, M’Lady.
I love dirty talk of hard on’s and poking…maybe I should write one for the guy who asked me for a poke once…
There I go again, Bryan if I were a man you would be a notch on my belt…five of them or more, at least!
Chef, why do I picture you baking penis-shaped cakes?
I loved these lines:
I wouldn’t have gushed
white flattery on your wall
Some how I’m guessing you had previously done that to Mr. Page 33.
Poetry speaks louder than facebook actions.
Love it, once again!
I highly endorse lashing out at ex-flames in a public way.
helllooooooooooo!!!!
i said heelllllllloooooo!!!!!!
why does this punk keep ignoring me?
brian! there are two interesting comments in your video post post
i’m trying to be nice in letting you know but you are such an asshole you’ll probably change the title of the post to make it look like I’m one
Dusty – I didn’t know we had such history together! Do we have children? Do I owe you child support?
I’ll let it slide (THE CHILD SUPPORT) you asshole!
so no, you don’t owe me anything
maybe a copy of your book
or do you have any video’s you and ML made?
uh oh need to go read those pages now!!!
I am pretty sure I wrote this comments before I made the promise, besides, I like Brian. This is in loving jest.
but yeah, I hope ML can forgive me. Nothing I wrote was with intent to hurt her.
Sick ‘em, Carty.
Loved it.
