A Poem For My Generation

Excellence Award in the 'Beyond Words 2015' competition

My eyebrows are on fleek.
My selfie game on point.
I have 800 followers,
But no friends at this joint.
I always use filters,
And I have the perfect pout,
But lonely I am,
There is no doubt
I go to many parties,
It keeps my social life alive,
But no one ever looks up,
From their damn iPhone 5.
This generation
Are becoming slaves
To the ever worrying
Social media craze
