Where are the skeletons...

There was a time when the crazy, insane junctures in life remained hidden,
Tucked away,
Secrets for others to chat about,
Never denied or confirmed,
The meat of the topic chewed upon, consumed,
Eventually becoming skeletal remains,
Hanging in a dark closet,
Enveloped in the spider’s web,
Forgotten.

In the twenty-first century, the being airs all via Facebook or Twitter,
Like an electronic roadside billboard or TV ad,
The status changes by the second,
A new tweet appears,
Updating all on their latest drama, tantrum, or madness,
Nothing is too personal,
All is disclosed.

Nevertheless, they are astounded when they learn others are discussing their private affairs,
How dare they!
