Don't Rush Me!

I want to be a poet
I want my tales to rhyme
Id love to pen a book of verse
If I just had the time!
Technology has made it swift
And simple as can be
For weve no need to pen a poem
When we can text and key!
It used to take me hours,
To draft a final master;
But thanks to my computer,
I make mistakes much faster!
I dont need Miriam Webster
Cause Spell Check does it for me!
It nose what I yam trying to say
And pompously ignores me!
I have no need of paper;
No matter how you figure;
Dont even need my glasses--
Just make the font lots bigger!
I cant blame awful penmanship
for my writers block;
Or losing track of time because
my PC has a clock!
No hours at the library;
No research to be read..
Its all right here on YouTube,
Or Ill Google it instead.
So here I sat to write my rhyme;
And sat, and sat, and SAT!
With all the worlds technology
Right there, staring back.
Id run out of excuses;
And yet you've read my rhyme!
and if by chance you're wondering,
where I found the time..
I left the virtual highway;
I put my my brain in park;
I pulled the little plug out;
and wrote this in the dark.

If you've written this in the dark, wonder what you'll do in light!!! :-) I liked this - "But thanks to my computer,
I make mistakes much faster!".......! |

I just to peruse your offerings and I arbitrarily picked this fome the list. Or was my hand guided by forces as yet unseen?
Hmm...
Whichever the case, I am glad of it. This is definitely a sign of serious poetic talent. The topic is one we all face in this day and age. And with such a light-hearted poke at the conveniences our machines pose. Such wonderful and meaningful flow.
Fantastic piece!
Thank you for sharing this!!!
