I got unfriended yesterday

(A FaceBook thing, you know)

They didn’t like what I had wrote

And so I had to go.

My post was perhaps too radical

Or maybe too right-wing

It isn’t easy when folks take

Offence at everything.

Discussing stuff like adults,

I didn’t think I’d need

Prostrating acquiescence;

My “friend”, though, disagreed.

A funny thing is FaceBook, mind,

You’ve “friends” that you don’t know

And if they disagree with you

That’s it!  You’ve got to go!
