On the 831
Take time to write your story page
somehow in this great texting age
looking away to check things out
and see what life’s all about.
The winds and rain, mud fire and pain
can take away all that you’ve gained
and leave you wondering in the wake
just how much more before you break.
If you’re only texting about yourself,
add some thoughts on someone else.
We’re all in a personal oyster shell
where each one tries to type and tell.
Speaking onward toward the divine
catch the 411 with the 459.
From vapid stares and shrugged shoulders
stronger thumbs each day grow boulder
We are frantic. It must be done.
Text to someone 831.
831
I love you (8 letters, 3 words, 1 meaning)
411
Meaning "information"
459
Means I love you (ILY is 459 using keypad numbers)
