Blackberry Poem by Madam Anonymous

It wakes me with lilting opera melodies
Without a luxury to snooze
Blatantly flashes across the screen
Day’s corporate appointments to schmooze

“Play the Tetris game”, demands
In the subway ride, my little princess
However, alone with crackberried strangers
I would rather play mind-chess

I whip it out, for an extempore picture
Of the art installation in the park
In between appointments, I surf
Sid’s poetry for a lark

With little beeps throughout the day
Emails keep pouring in
Making me realize
Living mindless in a rat-race is a sin

Indispensible for searching
A Zagat restaurant rating
An amazing bible of wonders
Absolutely crucial, while dating

“See you in 5”, I text
“Big O in 10”, is his reply
From this little black gizmo
Its flashy round knob, can I shy?

It is my knight in shining armor
My tall dark handsome paramour.
