Conversation

What is that thing? That thing that buzzes and hums Its buzzing again Ruining our conversation Are you listening to me? Put that thing away. Did you hear what I said? Your pocket is rocking again. Do you know what we were talking about? Is that more important? It’s humming and buzzing That seems to be more important I am done now, trying to speak with words and vocal tone Text away Because my real conversation wasn’t important to you anyway Cellphones are fine Texts are okay But not holding human interaction is going astray Hold up a conversation With speaking Not buttons
