My Phone Dings For No Reason

My phone dings for no reason.
I am not playing video games.
I am not trying to speak to a friend.

I am sitting in the living room
And I hear my phone dinging in the kitchen.
I pick it up and stare at it.

There are no alerts.
No messages.
No indicators at all.

I leave it in the kitchen
And it happens again and again
No rhyme or reason to it.

The new phones
have their own personality
their own mood, and their own secretive magical ways.

The new phones have minds of their own.
