Computers
Oh, how could this be?
Never thought it would happen to me!
My life has been smashed ...
this dang computer crashed!

It was just my luck
a bolt of lightening struck!
And without a sign
I was knocked right off line!

It wasn't a glitch
for it was dark as pitch.
with just one zap
my online life was over in a snap!

I sit here in the dark
with no modem, not even a spark.
I just sat and cried ...
online friends will think I died!

The repair man I cannot call
no 24hour emergencies at all.
My files long gone ...
Oh, where did I go wrong?

If down for a long period of time,
I may actually find
myself having to do housework again!!
And oh, what a pain!!

Now there's no more fun
for the computer has won.
As I sit in the dark and wait,
I just wish I had hold of that Bill Gates!
