a Behind the Screens Look

texting

(these days)

dominates,

while face

booking

dot.com.inates,

& tweeting

–tho’ a form I hate–

is proper

twitter·quette.

Linked in is

de·fence to

Gates,

& i’m’ing

increases

rate,

of need for specious

speech or prate,

that’s thick

on internet.

e-mailing

kiboshes

freight–

on letters posted–

lessens weight,

it gratifies!

(it gluts)

it sates.

it’s quickened

chitter-chat.

emojis, then,

express your

~state~

that acronyms

abbreviate,

those irksome words

that take up

space,

in click & post

verknack.
