#HashtaggingHell

Sometimes I see a hashtag, naively I do click,
thinking it will take me to a list of tweets similar to it.
To my great surprise and a tingling of despair,
there are no other tweets about it anywhere near there.

Because, alas, some people, they do hastagging wrong,
using them abundantly to make their tweets seem long.
Hashtagging every aspect of their topic simply is not right,
it makes people want to hurt you, and smash you in a fight.

#Thispoem #Really #IsNotAllThatGreat,
but it's a point that needed making, before it gets too late.
You can't just hastag everything, when prose would work just fine,
Stop tricking us into wasting clicks, it takes up too much time.
