Notes About The Poem

Please consult modern texting dictionary for abbreviations used. I don't have any clue, I wrote it abbout a year ago. The meanings may have changed.

Texting

Young geeks, txt with lightning speed,
Old dudes, lol, trying hard to find the next key to text,
w/e our asl may be, we are trying to convey,
our feelings, imho, in a cryptic language.

Codgers love the high from aged malt,
Whipper-snappers are already addicted to texting before they know,
You may go to jail for dui,
But you may be dead texting and driving,

Texting has its own dictionary and personalities trait,
Btw idk if still ily? u wre my og,
Nvm ‘m smh,  hmu asap,
No cap, tbh Ily.

Kit w/ ur hak, ur pain and sorrow, ur social events,
I will reply you with im chat,
a chat waiting to be responded,
Is like missing ur xoxoxo.

It is just for fun. Being a non-English major student, I barely passed my few years of middle school English courses.
