FB
By Freeyad Ibrahim

The most powerful drug
The most intéresting humbug
The most disgusting adiction
It eliminates all action
It is peaceful but evil
It causes lots of upheaval
If it is used in excess
Some hurry to it early in the morning
before taking their breakfast
That brings about
much more stress
It is like medicines
Or drugs
If used moderate, it is constructive
If used in excess, its destructive
It is like you eat your own blood
And your own flesh
It eats your labour,
It wastes yourself, your time
your energy, your prime
Your youth, your aspiring
it is a burden, it is tiring!
Makes you leave, deny
Your wife and children
They need you
To care for them
You are their support
You're their supply
