There is a joke I like to tell
It gets less funny with time
and age
and audience
but I still like to tell it.
***
There are only two kinds of people who carry two phones:
drug dealers
and whores.
***
So if you find yourself
with two phones
ask yourself
critically
honestly
"What am I selling?"
***
As I sit and enjoy the hotel breakfast
that I'm sure is only worth 20 Euro
if you take full advantage of the buffet
I note the amount of people in the room
with two phones
and wonder
"What are they selling?"
***
And then I take a second
to consciously feel
the lone, single device
sitting in my pocket
still
no rings
no vibrations
and ask myself...
"...shit. What am I?"
