The Facebook Poem
I’d heard about social networking, And how it was the next big thing, So I just had to take a look, And ended up on Facebook.
It only took me a little while, To fill out most of my profile, But I have spent many a night, Figuring out the rest of the site.
I never realized I had so many friends, The friend requests never end, All the people I can’t stand at work, And now the biggest high school jerk.
I have to admit I’ve learned a bunch, I know what all my friends eat for lunch, And it really helps me that I know, Everyone’s favorite TV show.
The work on Facebook never stops, I have to water my imaginary crops, Send get-well wishes to Farmville quick, My friend’s imaginary cow got sick.
I now realize my chances are dire, Of ever building a Mafia empire, And perhaps it is a bit of a shame, My It Girl will never go on to fame.
My kids' statuses tell me of their life, At dinner time I get poked by the wife, I try to keep my friend count nice and fat, So, I even signed up the dog and cat.
I guess you can say my life’s complete, I have more friends than I’ll ever meet, On Facebook I can roam far and wide, And I never have to go outside.
