A Poem...

I like to write, and I wrote a poem about Facebook.  My uncle asked if I would consider putting on my blog, so here goes. It's kind of long though... Just a warning.

“Asocial Network”

Get home after school and
Rush to the computer
To see that familiar screen.

Welcome to Facebook!

Friday night.
Been on Facebook since after school.
Everyone’s at the school dance.
Didn’t get asked...
Home alone with mom. Yay.
Maybe not, even she went out.
Stuck babysitting.

Saturday night.
Been on Facebook all day,
Eyes hurt from looking at the screen.
No plans.
No texts, no calls.
How is that possible?
1,097 friends!
Family dinner.
Nothing to do,
Nothing good on tv.
So bored!

Sunday day.
Still no contact from the “real” world,
Even Facebook abandoned me.
Life sucks.

Account deactivated.

Phone (finally) rings.
“Did you delete your Facebook?”
