“Shut Off”

“Shut Off”

 

Blocked and evaded,

a common crusader,

a fledgling social media pariah.

 

I invaded your space,

and tried to save face,

a pedantic Facebook messiah.

 

In case you may wonder,

about the small blunder.

I acted alone in causing upset.

 

Your overt reaction,

gives great satisfaction,

of this, I have no regret.

 

Keep wagging the post,

I love this the most.

Your attention is all that I need.

 

If you tire of this,

I clearly insist,

you tag a fellow hayseed.

 

My days are well spent,

looking to vent,

and steal any joy from your claims.

 

Your profile is weak,

and never on fleek.

You fell for my reindeer games.
