I Think I’m in Love with My Smartphone
From the book My Dog Likes to Disco
I think I’m in love with my smartphone.
I’ve never felt this way before.
I used to be lonely without it.
I don’t feel alone anymore.
My phone is my constant companion.
It loves to just hang out and play.
As long as I plug it in nightly,
it charms and delights me all day.
It likes to play music and movies.
It never says no to a game.
It answers my questions so sweetly.
Without it, life isn’t the same.
I hope you don’t misunderstand me
or think that I’m some kind of freak,
but I fell in love with my smartphone,
so we’re getting married next week.
