This is where I sprinkle bits and pieces of what I hope will someday be published in a book.

I can't quit you.....
You are ever consuming. I fall asleep next to you every chance I get.....and when the sun, peeking through my eastern window reminds me that the dream state is temporary...I turn to you at that waking moment. I can't keep my eyes off of you. Be it working, be it watching television, be it reading, be it with friends or be it alone. Your company it seems is all I desire. And when you are at your lowest point in each and every day I do whatever it takes to give you new life. I could never let you die. I would crawl to the ends of the earth to keep you going.
I have tried.....I've tried to imagine my life without you and it seems I could not go on. I can't even fathom how I existed prior to our pairing. Hell, I even tried living my life without you. I tried quitting you...leaving you...letting you be a thing of my past and finding my dependence elsewhere. But it was too hard..I relied on you too much. You always kept my interest.....always turned my attention toward you. You have never let me down, never hurt me and never left me. It would seem to others from my endless devotion and love for you that we are meant for each other. And maybe they are right. I can't live without you. I just can't quit you. I am hopelessly devoted to you. My cellphone.
This is obviously a satirical view of society's love affair with our electronic devices be it cellphones, IPads, tablets, laptops computers and televisions. They often garner more attention from us than our jobs, friends, children and spouses. It's a sad fact that I myself am far too guilty of many times.
