this poem seems to be about people who use the internet and have nothing but negativity to bring to the table and believe that they are living a life when they're merely stuck looking at a white screen writing paragraphs specifically designed to make someone feel bad and/or critics in general who have nothing but negativity to bring to the table and dedicate their lives to tearing down something someone so lovingly built. foolish critics that think they are powerful when they are anything but.
