out of touch, touching on Rip Van Winkle
the modern world only confuses and befuddles
uncertainty mounts and pressure builds
trying to be involved, evolution has passed me by –
detest is the word I use for my phone
accused of being smarter than I am;
and while I have a bachelor’s degree,
my manual is probably right
and I will never understand the vastness
of its functionality and app amazement –
A lonely grey hair falls gently
finding rest on the space bar as I type
and like an explosion or maybe lightning
it occurs to me that this is just the natural progression
and seriously, who cares if I can code…
I am 40 –
