Haiku Friday: The iPhone and Life

We don't usually haiku about stuff (except nature stuff, like snow), but the iPhone is by now so ubiquitous, so important, and so loved/hated, that it seems woven into our lives. If you love it, hate it, covet it, or wish the world was rid of it, let's haiku about that. Here, I will go first:

Fat slab, pocketful,

It warbles, wiggles, and yells

And I do respond.

Now, you go! Make if 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables, and have some fun!

Do not drive Iphone,
Buck the trend, reject what's hip,
A phone not traveled.

You obnoxious friend.
You tell me all I want to know.

In the tree 's heart
You are not. Lion's roar. Not.
Center of kiss. Not.
