"...Seeking attention Through plastic Social media..."

Stop Living Online

I'm this
I'm that
I've worked here
I've been there
They plead
Seeking attention
Through plastic
Social media.
Desperate to make
Their lives
Sound better
Than they ever
Could be or
Probably ever
Been. Me, I
Keep it lean.

Want to read
A poem or mad
Deranged story
I'll sort you
Every time I
Get published,
Or if you want
A song lost
To the history
Of time,
Well sometimes
I'll give you
That as well ...
