The Facebook Netizen

An attempt to picture the changes in our behaviour with the onslaught of the Phenomenon called Social Networking !!

Dedicated to the Stupid Common Man on Facebook :-)


I start my day with a Good Morning,
I ' Check-In ' the place I drop in !!
I ' Tag ' my friends who drive along,
I convey my feeling via an Emoticon !!
I like a picture here and there,
And I do comment with due Flair !!
My views on Politics are far too strong,
I post and argue all day long !!
I rejoice the victory of my Favourite Team,
I paint my page Saffron, White and Green !!
I am pained by a disaster, a mishap, a crisis ,
That I blame the state alone for all the losses. !!
I am so Information hungry and yes my memory is short lived,
Coz I forget yesterday’s story and look for the news Breaking-in-BOLD !!
Don’t Question my religion, my community or Faith,
Rest Assured, you will be Trolled and face the Wrath.!!
I am not a Voltaire to tolerate your non-sense,
Coz I feel ,I am the only one who often makes sense.!!
I have so many questions to the world,
That I forgot to INTROSPECT. !!
Every day I look for answers ,
But find none that commands my respect. !!
My Curiosities , My Stupidities,
My Expectations, My Frustrations,
All will be found on my Wall,
Coz I share more virtually and less personally. !!
I forgot the beauty of an in-person conversation !!
I live more in my thoughts and exist on the Web !!
You may wonder who I am ,
I am the long forgotten Homosapien,
I am the New Facebook Netizen. !!


Yours truly,
Shravan
