Tablet
there is nothing sadder
than watching a kid
navigate an iPad
eyes focused
intensly
in direction of lap
rabidly
triangle and tap
sensitive plastic
opening another window
of two-dimensional crap.......
meanwhile......
dead-headed
dead-head parents
hold up smart-phones
hump 'em together
exchanging data fluids
injecting each other
with viral
electro-magnetic clap......
back
to
unfortunate pre-schooler's
i-Trap........
three-hours
ass-glued
to couch
take
lactose intolerant
break
eat sugary snack
2 more hours
of cyber-pap
crawl exhaustedly
to bed
take a nap
and ya
wonder why
Michelle O'bama freaked
'bout kids bein' fat?
I know how
to break
the childish habit
of finger dancin'
on surface flat
I'll give that kid
a tablet
a tab of acid
in fact
let that precious
mind unwrap
tear ass off sofa
when giant
dust-mites attack
flee to the yard
behold
green planet intact
to explore
instead of
whore
for pimp parents
addicted to
corporate crack
