21st Century Commandments

by Alex Penuelas   May 19, 2017


Thou shalt not
Eat thine dinner
Till thou
Taketh a selfie
And posteth it
Up on the Instagrams.

Thou shalt not
Slide into the DMs
Of a person who is
Already in a relationship.

Thou shalt not
Travel anywhere
Till thou
Posteth thine location
With a silly emoji
On the Facebooks

Thou shalt not
Stand up during a
Netflix marathon
Till thine holy program
Is completed.

Thou shalt keepeth
The Amazon reviews holy,
Lest there be a mistake
In your purchase.

If thou must,
Thou shalt post up
Thine personal feelings
In a minimum of
140 characters or less
On Twitter.

It is a
Cardinal sin if
You forget to check on Yelp
The reviews of a restaurant
Before purchasing any of their products.

Whosoever is found
Practicing infidelity
Must be forced to
Create a joint Facebook account,
And for the rest of their days
They must be together,
Lest the account were to be removed
By the Facebook overlords.

Thou shalt not
Take a picture of thineself
Until thou puts the correct
Dog filter on Snapchat.

And thou shalt not
Take a picture of a
Starbucks Frappuccino
Without forgetting to add
#basic.
