common room

life gets strangely stilted
when you are away from your
familiar surroundings

you don't know how to act
or talk or behave

the consequences of your behaviour
are not the same

socially inadequate, all of us
we wondered if
talking to new people
on social media
improved our socialising skills

oh no, i said,
it only improves your social media skills
oh no, she said
ive never even talked this much
to these people before....
