Old Timer Rhymer Poet Rhyme

Instagram is a sham!

So Instagram is a sham
Everyone seems smitten
With posts about a kitten
Or hosts who hate Britain
Or boasts so badly written
Toasts flam & are all bitten
Goddam is just like spam

Famalam use as a babysitter
Wham bam for any dimwitter
Won’t scram will be a big hitter
Instagram is just glam glitter

Oh please look at me vanity
Narcissist wheeze is insanity
Tease with another profanity
Disease crippling all humanity

Pedants on pews lives fritter
Algorithm queues like twitter
Bottom feeder ruse you critter
Needier travesty tapestry knitter
Greedier fuse lit & now shi*ter

Seedier impropriety just litter
Social media a society splitter 
Notoriety trolls scrolls flitter
Anxiety but folks will still titter
Piety for botox you’ll be fitter

Ham it up cash cow AI lie spitter  
Kowtow get no views so just bitter
Kapow a scam not some Ashram
Stop cropped photoshopped slop
They cram in a half baked pitta
Instagram is bust and just a sham

Alison A Smith August 23, 2026 at 9:04 PM A fast, irreverent satirical rhyme storm that captures social media’s noise, vanity, and endless appetite for attention. The tumbling internal rhymes and inventive wordplay give it a deliberately frantic, scrolling-feed energy, while the repeated “sham” and “glam glitter” keep the critique punchy and memorable.
