Analysis of Facebook Zombies

Happiness should be the journey,
Death the destination,
But modern life is one long pursuit,
Of self worth annihilation.

You cannot see the wood,
For all the wasted paper,
No longer going for a smoke,
Just sucking poison vapour.

Socialising through an app,
Texting side by side,
Socially antisocial,
On a media driven ride.

A rise in teenage pregnancy,
A surge in dead end dads,
Priorities all muddled up,
Treating children like they're fads.

Though people may be kind,
They also hurt and maim,
Desperate to be liked,
From their 15 second fame.

The world today has lost so much,
Through the poisoned viral net,
The youth these days are all caught up,
In lies and pointless debt.

But tomorrow holds a chance,
To give happiness a voice,
Inside ourselves, deep down low,
We all know it's a choice.

Turn off that computer,
Don't check your phone at all,
Meet your friends, in real life,
Or at least give them a call.

Question all you're told in life,
Don't follow like a sheep,
Then maybe we can wake this world,
From its Facebook zombie sleep.
