And so I closed my eyes and typed away


Lets see what comes out of one minute of nothing:1

Here I was at my desk, trying to iumagine what I would say when I clsoed my eyes and looked awayt. And you know what , it seems like I can still type with my eyes cliosed and have noithuing to say.2

Ha, well I am sure this is laced with errors but hey what can you do when you are practicing tyeiung with eyes cliosed and iopen heart.3

And now the minute is up and I am back here facing reality.4


OK _ So looks not too bad for not looking and typing while randomly thinking. Seems like I am able to bore myself back into wanting to do some work instead of prose or sonnets, hell even the Blues (I love the blues as some of you know).5

      If I knew I suppose I could bottle it and sell it at Walmart for $4.99 an ounce.


  • You did very well for typing with your eyes closed. I took typing class for a year, so I do pretty well myself, but I have a hard time with the shift key when I do...so most of the time I don't use it. I would love to read one of your sonnets, I find myself unable to write them.
