I write silly names

Of people who do not exist

I would tell you about them

I would make up facts

To match the names

It goes too far

They are better faceless

You are better off not knowing

Where they work and live

How they came to live

In your neighborhood

If they spy on you or

Write about your visitors

You're already getting itchy

You haven't even heard

Of him except from me

You don't even know me

Even though my name will appear 

At the bottom of this

It might not even be my name

Just one that fits the space

He's already moved on

From three streets over

It wasn't you he watched

I just made that up

You hope
