Socially Mediated

Fake News,
Phishing scams,
Hey, y'all, look at me!
It's like a circus everyday
For all the world to see.

But, what can sometimes seem so bad
Is also used for good;
Connecting with a scattered past
Is clearly understood
As the reason we continue

Down the Social Media path
That tantalizes
While it taunts
And makes us seething mad.

I guess with every good
There is corresponding bad
That brings us all together
In a way we never had

Before Facebook, Twitter and all this other stuff....

Belonging to the Facebook Community

Facebook:
Re-connect the dots
Of times past
With friends
Not forgotten
Just neglected

Community:
A belonging
In times past
With friends
Now neglected
Or forgotten

Belonging:
Desired
But missed
Because friends
Forget
In our neglect

Is the cyber-age the answer to a lost art?
I don't think so.
