Modern connections

Social butterflies by facts and figures

Our mercurial temper, shifts and sways

We love, like, laugh, cry and get angry

All in a matter of a few seconds.

.

Fickle followers, we proudly display

Number of friends another few hundred

Smile for a smile, block, unfriend when we like

Absolute freedom, sans taxing contracts.

.

Lost in the mirage of magic portals

Flying in our rainbow-coloured bubbles

We collect and send hearts by the dozen

From cold nooks of our cloistered cubicles.
