Dumb Courage

People are so so comfortable

In their anonymity

There is no fear of judgement

When you hide behind a mask

A screen

You’re brave

Because you don’t have to face

The face on the other side of that screen

Anonymity gives people dumb courage

To be bold in ways

That in person would be mean

But who cares

It’s just a little insipid picture

A stranger hidden behind a profile

Not a real human being

Such is the anonymity of the screen
