Alright people you know the drill,

Plan it out, play the song,

Point the camera and shoot.

 

Oh, and hold still!

 

None of those basic poses

That we always do for Flickr

Not the duck face

Or the fish gape!

This has to be clearer

 

Frozen in time

Acting out different scenarios

Of actions we were doing

Eating, running, talking, drinking, etc.

 

It’s going on

Flipagram

Instagram

When did black Beatles become a jam!?

 

We were frozen by the Ice,

Tired from the running man,

Some are still shaking from the Harlem,

But this is different!

 

We are,

 

Caught up with our turnt emotions

Of posing however we want

For the mere 15 seconds of fame

When we go viral

 

It’s being done by everybody

Before the election Hillary did it

Some say her supporters were still frozen on Election Day

 

62 million followers frozen out

 

It was done in the Whitehouse

To celebrate a team’s greatness,

Also done in Syria by doctors

To help raise awareness

For the shatters of the war

The news now seems to ignore

 

It is,

 

A living statue

To pay tribute

To who we are

Damn Meme Millennials
