can't live with it, can't live without it

T-E-X-T-I-N-G,
I can't get you away from me.
A mini message easily sent
Is turned to minutes wasted, spent
On typing notes best delivered
By phone, mail, arrow bow and quiver.
Lest I sit while time must turn
Without T-9 word (which I refuse to learn)
I take my time spelling things out proper.
A bout of big news can be a real thumb-stopper.
Sometimes for gossip, updates on a plan,
I often wonder how folks text in Japan.

I love it, hate it, but always guilty
Of using and abusing the power of texting
