The Smart Phone Sonnet

\nThe modern mobile phone needs constant charging,
\nSo android fans all cluster round the plug.
\nAn i-Phone’s role is constantly enlarging —
\nWe’ve given technophiles another drug.<\/p>\n
They race to grab upgraded applications,
\n“My latest widget’s far ahead of yours”.
\nWith Blackberry and Winphone altercations
\nThe conversation never quite matures.<\/p>\n
Yet what’s the use of app’s if you’re a chatter
\nAnd only want a phone to call your Mum?
\nIgnore the lure of ads for phones that flatter
\nGo out and get a handset that is dumb!<\/p>\n
But if you do you’ll be too bored for words
\nWhen all your friends are playing Angry Birds!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
