The Keyboard's Mightier Then Delete
...The old cliche.
"The pen is mightier then the sword", said they.
But haven't we advanced at all?
That newer, better sayings could be formed?
The keyboard's power surpasses the force and there are those that prefer their voice.
The classroom still prefers you use the pen, but when you leave, will you then?
Will you clutch a pencil till it snaps, etching into paper till it wraps. Clutching at the
pen and writing till, you make an error and can't repeal. You ask for a better way, this
is the day.
...For typing.
The keyboard's mightier then delete. The poetic voice surpasses violent screams.
Let the modern day warriors of the word, raise their hand and be coerced;
...to lend their talents to the world that needs them.
