Like a whirlwind he went on the Facebook,
‘Liking’ everything that he could find;
Unmindful of the time and pains the authors took,
In one minute he put all that behind.
It took more time for the writers,
To thank him for ‘liking’ their posts.
But, he was still better than those blighters,
Who are invisible like the ghosts.
There is, however, that rare breed,
Who, on the merits of the posts, comments.
They are not looking for the slightest lead,
To display to everyone their (hidden) talents.
You scratch my back, I scratch yours,
Hasn’t been, by them, perfected as an art.
They write their names amongst the doers,
Who breathe in more than they fart.
You too don’t have to be on a conquest,
‘Liking’ and ‘winning’ everything as if smitten;
Give your ‘Liking’ finger a little rest,
And let your eyes actually read that is written.
And lo! You will gradually discover,
You’ve gained a lot from this medium;
As also you’d very soon recover,
What you lost by ‘liking’ and acting dumb.
