Dream

In a dream
Last night cell
Phones became
Thinner flexible and
Recharged just being
Near an electrical outlet
Then expandable to tablet
Size and larger all on their
Own as life-size images
Of the owner chatted
Screen to screen all
Safe at home their
Cell phones were
The mobile self
Defying mere
Gravity to fill
Stands and
Theaters
Cafes
Even work
Offices side
By side couples
Strolling in parks
Six-foot screen
Side by side a
Human being
An oddity a
Quaintly
Odd
Reminder
Of the old days
But the scariest part
Of my dream was all the
Cell images were emojis
The cartoon version of
How we would like to
Look not what their
Isolation indoors
Unmoving had
Rendered a
Physique
Too long
Asleep.
