DMA Week 4

My theme is truth in social media connections. Connections offline and online can work when the truth is upheld. It all comes down to being true to yourself which will reflect on Facebook posts. This theme still pertains to relationships: Veritas Vas Liberatum (the truth shall set you free).

My poem is to the tune of “On Top of Old Smokey”

A freshman in college
It would all be so new,
I needed a roommate
But didn’t know who.

I filled out a survey
And hoped for the best,
They mailed me a contact
Now this was the test.

We first met on Facebook
We typed back and forth,
She came from the South
And I from the North.

The chats were so friendly
We found out so much,
This online bonanza
Was a personal touch.

It was orientation
They day we first met,
Our online connection
Seemed like a sure bet.

We now room together
Each day has been great,
A Facebooking frenzy
As if it was fate.

I guess we were once young
An innocent view,
But now techno savvy
We all must stay true.
