Big Brother

I always wanted a big brother We could play seek and hide But not snoop upon one another That I could not abide. We’ve a big brother in front of us On a bright shiny screen We feed it our secrets with no fuss But shocked when they are seen… This ‘cloud’ has not a silver lining No rainbow can be found For if you choose to share everything Your book is open bound! Think twice ‘fore you let big brother in Choose how you share your life Tread carefully before you begin Or you’ll find naught but strife! It gossips and spreads your bad actions For all the world to see Never caring for your reactions Not a big brother to me!
