Facebook has spread its wings,
TV or desserts, it surely beats both these cravings.

Be it autumn, summer or spring,
This addiction manages to cling.

Clawing its way through our heart and soul,
Why do we feel the need to constantly scroll?

FB audience skews slightly more females than males,
Does it mean that girls are prone to online trails?

Yes, FB boosts our ego and morale,
But it also does a lot to deflate.

Like FB at your own risk,
For it often makes you less brisk.

The more time you spend here,
The more you socially disappear.

Depression and anxiety,loneliness and narcissm,
The gifts from FB encompass a large prism.

You can  fight or take flight,
Whatever you choose just be allright.

There is no alternative to pumping of the adrenaline,
Unless you have a life offline.

Have Fun!!!!!!!

    :-)) A ubiquitous but unique topic to write about. I was nodding in agreement, all along the verse…and my biggest FB pet peeve is when people write private messages to their spouses/partners (sitting next to them) in their status…KWIM???

    Females are more social than males… therefore skewed in FB? Zuckerberg would be happy reading this Priya!

    You've described the fever known as FB addiction and expressed a truth too. One has to have a life offline to counter this fever. Great going, Priya!
