Snapchat
Snapchat. By Mark Phibbs
An app that gives us what you see
It grabs it as its meant to be
Then you can send it to your mates
The Internet opens its gate
A timer that safely removes
It from their view, do they approve?
For some things that are sent about
May cause the watcher quite a shout
For people think it's quite a lark
Who knows what next may draw their spark
The photos and the videos
Sent forth to shed them of their woes
Snapchat, it is the name it has
It's use is growing fast and crass
Even the Facebook shows its rues
As all the fails, you abuse
So what may be the next delight
Some media that will excite
But keep your finger on the screen
It's quick to go, that's just so mean
