The Seven Dwarfs of Facebook

The Seven Dwarfs of Facebook

By Elton Camp

Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s off to Facebook they go
Each dwarf represents a type of person you know

Lonely the truth about himself does hide
How little is in his life others mustn’t decide

*****y acts that way, himself to protect
So that hurtful interaction he needn’t expect

Stalky to certain ones obsessive attention pays
Whether it’s for months or weeks or days

Grammar Nazi minor mistakes points out
To show he knows what things are about

Funny tries to make everything into a joke
But is seen as odious, making others choke

Drama Queen makes a big issue of it all
Even of things in life that are very small

Moody is as unpredictable as can be
Can’t know what response you’ll see

Saying “dwarfs” is politically incorrect
But their names show what to expect

So if Snow White encounters any of these,
She’ll see that they’re impossible to please
