KEYBOARDING ON THE WEEKENDS
We have an old computer,
Not linked to the Net (it’s neutered)…
On which she plays “Spider”*
While I watch beside her,
In cards I don’t want to be tutored!
–
Anyone who has seen has agreed
That typing is easier to read…
Instead of my script
My wife often quipped,
So I type poetry out of need.
–
On this computer I will process
What will be edited less…
Ideas ripe,
Dreams ready to pipe:
Rhymed and rhythmed nobleness!
–Jonathan Caswell
*Spider is a computerized card game.
