If I wanted to write to you
I’d write
If I wanted to talk with you
I’d phone
I would choose ONE
Not try some kind of combo
Which is neither
And those abbreviations!
They’re reinforcing bad language habits
You may think
I’m pathetically behind the times
I’m intimidated by technology
Or maybe
I’m simply being stubborn
Truly, it’s none of those things
If it inconveniences you,
I’m sorry
But, if you really want
To communicate with me
You’ll take the time to call
Or send me an email
I do not DO texting,
And I don’t plan to start.
