Live a public life in a private room
Like you wouldn't dare in all senses full
Beckon on crawlers with witless fun
Credentials exposed and signatures unzipped

It is only a stage…so they say
Showcase an act…reward some friends
Punish the fiends…in **** pretence
False rewards...for borrowed talents

Real friends in life…may not emoji click
Real wolves in mind…but friends by finger-flick,
Hallowed patronage…perfected in falsehood.
Pictures and status…served to dangerhood

Blade the stitches that once were mended
Crash the home…popularity cheapened
Enlarge the circles of fishers-hookers
Full of foolishness and wisdom killed

More pound, the techman…and less, the player.
Seekers of fun from the peppered ghost
Hookers’ desire and vultures' delight.
Awake, o e-man, and protect the real man.
