Typewriter

As his hands stroked me gently Gliding across the cup of me Barely touching my parts As his mind raced away with his plot His desire was just to use me How was I to know Maybe when he rolled in the clean paper, that should have been a clue Today he would just type up a few notes Hemmingway I love you but to you I was just another key Written this 16th day of May, 2013 Sponsor: Craig Cornish Contest: The Typewriter

I admire your fantasy and quality of poetry. I think that on poetry soup one learns more by reading than by writing. You write at best.
