I thought of my friends at AP often
especially my partners in crime
But life had other plans for me
You see.... technology hates me.
First it was my cell phone
I answered with wet hair
and then just for good measure
I dropped it down the stairs
Next my dear computer
Ah, our favorite toy
it died from overheating
I suspect it was my boy
It took 3 months to fix it
and when i got it back,
it took an hour just to load
and then my screen cracked.
I had another computer
rigged my by sweet man
of course, it was at my house
and so it found its death
My car had problems too,
It must have realized who i was.
The tires all went bad at once,
the engine rattled rebellion
And I had to laugh
you see,
technology hates me.
My computers being fixed again,
though I'd like to throw it down the stairs
And through it all what i have learned is....
My friends, I should have been Amish.

Humor!!!!!
Everyone thinks if a poem is not serious it sucks. Your "crappiest poem" put a much needed smile to my face. Thank you! and that is what poetry is all about! SMILES

Funny!
Crappy, no, it was fun! And you know one reason why? Umm, how could you know? lol. Well, because I have a friend who says the same thing and it is true, it does seem to dislike her. Things that work for me don't seem to work for her. I think she's technology jinxed.
So I got an extra little chuckle as I read thinking of my friend's technology plight.

hillarious
might I suggest a lead vest so the technology doesnt sense your there lol

Fantastic!!
LOL, sounds just like me. I love it!

Oh this is a worry. No phone, no computer and a broken car. Your television stands between you and total change. If it breaks you'll be pregnant within thirty days; triplets. Nature’s balance is all consuming. ---- Thank you.

Cute and reason to pause
Clever musings that we all endure more than we would like to admit (except poets, we relish disaster). Thanks for the thoughts and words and may you win a certificate from the Geek Squad.

Hi there stranger, I've missed you. It's good to see you back again and entering the contest.
I know how you feel about technological stuff. I'm so fortunate to have a built in thech at my house. He keeps my pc running smoothly He did drop my cell phone into a glass of water at a resturaunt one evening, though... I guess no one is perfect. He immediatly made sure it was still working, though. tool it all apart right there at the resturaunt and made sure it was all dry, put it back together and, walla... it worked
Good luck in the contest welcome back
