Here’s a poem I wrote for my English class. Yep.

O, Facebook! My Facebook! What a captivating tome!
How do you stunt so many’s productivity by keeping them prisoner’s at home?
With all the praise and raving I’ve heard from friends with access to this novel,
If I take their word, it is undoubtedly a tremendous marvel!
I’ve waited and searched
For a book like this
Because, far and wide I have read
Of Zuckerberg’s magnum opus.

I journeyed to the bookstore to find this magical creation,
Surely to be crammed with vastly useful information.
All this talk of walls and shared illustrations!
This text is truly enthralling across the nations!
The love for this spreads through all ages
All maturities are given happiness;
They are all in awe
Of Zuckerberg’s magnum opus.

And so for eons I have longed and yearned for my turn
To read this great work, to soak in its knowledge, to learn.
But I am rattled to discover what a phony Facebook is truly.
I had been lied to of the glamours and perfections of the time-sucking ugly.
What a let-down you actually are.
I can’t figure why some of us
Would grandly talk wide and far
Of Zuckerberg’s magnum opus.

 

Also, I GOT FOUR TEETH PULLED TODAY OH MY GOSH YEAH IT HAPPENED.

Okay, bye.

About Ellie Shackelford

Salutations! My name is Ellie Shackelford, and I am thirteen years old. I love to read, write, knit, and dork out over new things I've found...obsessively. I love Harry Potter and Doctor Who with a burning passion usually reserved for ice cream and doodling, and in an everyday conversation, I'll probably make a reference or two. Making tea is a absentminded habit of mine, as is alphabetizing and color-coding things, so definitely don't put a handful of crayons in front of me if you want my complete attention. And finally, thanks for reading my blog, you lovely person, you.

If you have something cool to say, spit it out. Not literally. Typing is more sanitary.
