Disrespect
Disrespect
I suppose my words hold no value
To those within your phone
I suppose I can’t remove you
From your electronic throne
Which possesses all your time
So, ignorant and blind
Is there purpose in speaking
When my words do not confine?
A conversation is established
Engaged as we converse
I feel as though your time
Gives me a sense of worth.
A passionate catastrophe
When a text turns into blasphemy
Unquenchable rage
Converts into insanity.
No longer do I wish
To partake in conversation
When electronic vibration
Results in immediate segregation
What ever would you do,
If your phone did not exist
Would your body be perplexed
By the text you thought you missed.
Your phone is a violent,
Malicious, and satanic contraption
That literally obliterates
All human interaction.
So I suppose the question is,
“What really ticks me off?”
And that question can be answered
As quick as uttering a cough.
It comes from the ignorance
That every phone injects,
When humans get their fuel
From the “bing” of every text
No worries are given
It does not matter place and time
So the answer to the question
“What makes you ticks the best?”
It’s really nothing more than a little
DISRESPECT.
