An IPod

AN IPOD

I am not an iPod,
so take off your headphones
when I speak.

I am not an iPod.
I require more
to be recharged.

I am not an iPod.
i am not here
to be in the background
and will not change my tune
on your command.

I am not an iPod
nor a tool
you can pocket and pretend
is simply a fashion accessory.
I am more than that.

I am not an iPod:
I don’t know a thousand songs
by a hundred artists
that you value at pennies apiece.

I am not an iPod,
and you cannot turn me off
quite that easily
