Writing Boots

On communication, professional and otherwise.

We’ve got the phone, so we’re never alone

02.09.2010 by David Murray // 3 Comments

She texts in the car,

She texts at the bar.

She texts in the store,

She texts more and more!

She texts watching TV,

On the couch next to me.

"Can u eat eggs with sell-by last Wed.?"

"Do u know the Super Nanny channel off top of ur head?"

"Do u think they'll cancel school?"

"Watching Glenn Beck; this man is a tool!"

She's everywhere at Onceler,

But here, with me, her Hunceler.

I will not, will not watch her text.

"I can not, damn not! What is next?"

I say,

to which she replies,

"I'm a texter now, okay?"
