You and Your Cell Phone

I see you walking
back and forth
on the sidewalk
in your pajamas
talking to Scotty or Spock
or someone
about something . . .
and I think
about your offspring . . .

I think hard about your offspring

and my inner goddess
winces and frets
and then I look again
and I see you still
walking back and forth
on the sidewalk
in your pajamas
talking to Lieutenant Uhura
or Captain Kirk or someone
about something . . .
and I think
about your offspring . . .

I think hard about your offspring

and then I think about
natural selection
