Technological Nightmare

A Poem by matelotrod

based on a true happening.

Technology Nightmare.

Technology is driving me completely around the bend
The trouble began because of my wife, will it ever end?
She decided that it was time to learn how to send a text
Resulting in constant shouting, "What the heck do I do next"

This carried on for almost a week and I was of no assistance
Every time I saw her with her phone I just kept my distance
Then something finally came to light and ended all her stress
I was working in my back room when I heard her yell "Success"

She had finally found the answer, I felt I owed her an apology
I had not been of any help to her because I loathe technology
I was never a lover of mobile phones a landline suits me fine
I just pick it up and dial a number and contact my friends on line.
