Is It Time

Is it time to buy an iPhone? I've been doing fine without it. Yet most people seem to have one; There are no two ways about it. I don't want to get addicted Like most smartphone users are, Always looking down and scrolling, Which I really find bizarre. Yet it's nice to access email Or find info when you need it. There's an appetite for gadgets And in modern life, we feed it. Though my husband has an iPhone, Which I often seem to borrow, I know I can have my own, Perhaps as early as tomorrow. So I'm on the diving platform, Staring down into the deep Of technology's advances And I'm ready for the leap. Will I do it? Time's a'wasting And my motive's more than whim; But such challenges await and I Don't really like to swim.
