Yes Master 16 x 20

Put down your smart phone

You cannot live n electronic life

Permanently immortalizing

These pointless moments

With texts, tweets,

Instagram and Facebook

It will spiral down

Into the World Wide Web black hole

Briefly flashing as it passes

The event horizon

Of like and share

Put down your smart phone

You are missing life all around you

If that picture you are sharing

Is worth a thousand words

Real life will leave you speechless

Put down your smart phone

This is not 1984

Do not offer up your personal life

For the scrutiny of big brother

Put down your smart phone

That small screen will not keep you warm at night

You cannot download a real friend

Put down your smart phone

Experience life first hand

Do not filter it through a tiny screen

Go out and see for yourself

The interplay of light and color

Put down your smart phone

Hashtag your dinner is getting cold

While you take a picture of it

Put down your smart phone

Use it as a coaster for your beer

Put down your smart phone

If you choose to live vicariously through YouTube

You shortchange your own life

Will you put down your smart phone

Social media can wait

Will you put down your smart phone

Or are you on your knees

Praying to your new god

Selling pieces of your soul

For each new app

Will you put down your smart phone

And take your hand off

Your electronic lover

That keeps you prostrate

In the cloud

Will you put down your smart phone

Disconnect that electronic lover

That leads you around

In a choker collar

Will you put down your smart phone

Or have you surrendered to the matrix

Can you put down your smart phone

Or do you find

Resistance is futile

Can you put down your smart phone

And be comfortable being disconnected

Can you put down your smart phone

Do you panic

When your phone is missing

Can you put down your smart phone

Will you put down your smart phone

Just put down your smart phone
