New Year's Resolutions

I erased all of my
online dating profiles.
Some were looking for
immediate fun and some
for long lasting relationships.
But I found all of them
reaching for something
that didn’t quite exist.
I became nothing more than
another item in a lineup of
flattened personalities hoping
to be picked out and
found attractive by someone
and hopefully escape.
But these places don’t care
about people or personalities,
just subscriptions and traffic.
So I dropped them all
and decided to roam free,
a full person with quirks and qualities,
taking my chances out in the open
instead of inside a box.
