Ode to Social Media
Life is too short to 'like' when you could 'love'
Or click a cat-heart sticker into place
Or share that Sean Bean meme again, or shove
A rainbow-puking filter on your face.
Old folks make disapproving noise but hey,
It's how we show each other that we care.
The modern method is to sweetly say
"You're valued" with a retweet or a share.
Some mourn the downfall of humanity;
Apparently they were so dignified
And perfect in the past (Luddites agree),
I think it is no wonder they all died.
Life is absurd; it's certain so are we.
This latest filter makes my face a tree.
