    1) The author wrote a poem with the intention of creating familiarity and relatability to appeal to an audience's emotions in order to be successful in protest. 2) The poem uses an ABB rhyme scheme to enhance rhythm and fluidity, and incorporates repetition to portray the omnipresent nature of social media in a teenager's life. 3) While the author believes the main ideas and points came across effectively, the poem could have been too informal and lacked depth and a "wow" factor to leave more of an impression.
