Oops I did it again, I tried writing measly poetry, Now I did the next thing again: Oops I did it again, I held my hopes up to the light like a moth with it's wings So I got burned and this next thing happened: The internet was down, again The perfect punishment to my wishful crime Reload, submit, publish it in public And oops I see the error: wonky sad face icon, 404 My poem and my words are now Internet trash, debris Goodbye old prose, goodbye sentimental meaning What do I expect from the digital, the temporary? Oops I did it again I let my heart feel sadness, the madness of gladness and Now I have Irish cream, Drinking, stylish, from a coffee cup it seems.

Mourning the loss of a Poem just now
Oops I did it again, I tried writing measly poetry, Now I did the next thing again: Oops I did it again, I held my hopes up to the light like a moth with it's wings So I got burned and this next thing happened: The internet was down, again The perfect punishment to my wishful crime Reload, submit, publish it in public And oops I see the error: wonky sad face icon, 404 My poem and my words are now Internet trash, debris Goodbye old prose, goodbye sentimental meaning What do I expect from the digital, the temporary? Oops I did it again I let my heart feel sadness, the madness of gladness and Now I have Irish cream, Drinking, stylish, from a coffee cup it seems.
I tried submitting a poem, freshly written, when to my shock and disappointment, the wifi went down and could;t load the page. The poem got deleted and now I am sad.
