The woman sitting next to me is texting
and it sounds like an energy chime.
With each notification
my mind turns toward an inner temple
and a yearning for peace.
Startled by a touch on my arm,
I jump as she smiles and shows me the message:
"Stupid people should just shut up."
The temple shatters
and I think...
maybe they shouldn't text either...
