iPhone complaints

Been writing less poems 
Since I got my first iPhone 
Cuz it takes longer

The ads annoy me
The keyboard is too tiny
It’s more frustrating

Autocorrect— ugh!
Don’t even get me started!
I know how to spell!

Oh wait, actually
As I write out my complaints
It’s all going well :)

Perhaps most of all
I simply have not made time 
(Watching many reels)

So, well, here I am
The poems are jammed in my heart
Waiting to go free

Perfectionism
Might also be restraining 
Creativity

It may be too late
For some thoughts I neglected
Not too late for some 

I’ve had lots of time
Time to mull it all over 
Have to start somewhere…

Good luck. Turn the phone off for awhile. I'd like to hear more poems.
