Cell Phones

Heads bowed, eyes focused,
The magic of the Hocus Pocus. 
Transfixed, in a spell
Nothing else will they dwell.
Walking around zombified
Surely brains, have been fried.
Life ruined, no conversation,
Texting now the inspiration.
Grasp of language, long forgotten,
Shortened text – yuk, it’s rotten,
GR8, LOL, TLC, OMDB,
Worlds gone mad, OMG!!

G'day Ronald … well written verse on the modern way of life. Society has gone mad. Are we on the universes lunatic asylum? It appears so - thanks Ronald - Lindsay
