We are all humanoid jerky inside the Facebook dehydrator,
It turns our brains inside out wringing them dry in gyrator,
Don't forget Instagram as I've given into that Meta-Universe sparkle,
They need my photographic memories to accompany written word debacle,
I can't wait to see them seize these words but with positive spin,
Their spin doctors don't realize the trouble they're in,
They'll have to tip toe in the night to circumvent the masses,
While the daylight gives way to sneaky social media classes,
Because indoctrination begins with higher learning,
And it's hard to ignore voice of our generation discerning,
As you know billionaires resources run deep,
They talk from both sides of their mouths and we don't make a peep,
Dumbstruck silent by all the pretty lights and sound,
Websites designed to befuddle, confound and compound,
This is my warning for those prepared to listen,
Before you sign up online have eyes checked for blurred vision.
