SOCIALLY UNBURDENED
On the road
I drive wherever
In a manner however
And faster than you
You
Whomever
In a manner however
And faster than you
You
Whomever
I can do it, so I will
Yonder, rapt in tech
I stream the limits
Of my handhelds
Of my handhelds
Beware my wander
No hands held
My music is loud
No hands held
My music is loud
And rattles some moods
Should you prefer
It not intrude
Seek your local elevator
Should you prefer
It not intrude
Seek your local elevator
Look at me
Look after me
SOCIALLY BURDENED
These two old totes of mine
Weight my arms
And slow me down
Annoying, I am sure
One more old truck
Making wide turns
Sprinting I gave up long ago
Plodding will have to do
Plodding will have to do
My accumulation continues to grow
And must be moved
And must be moved
I could lose half the
heft
Make it easier
For whatever steps I have left
All this paper . . .
Update!
My youngers press
Use apps, digital maps and
GPS
Deal with what’s what
And where it’s at
With much less fuss
Must you look
over my shoulder?
