About to Lose my Wits
I think that I have never seen
a thing as vexing as a computer screen
Page after page I type and type
then one wrong click, out they’re all wiped
System won’t let me upload and submit
I’m about to lose my wits
And when I download a doc, it’s impossible to save
Damned system will send me to an early grave
So, I’ve thrown the whole kit-and-kaboodle out the window*
Only now, where did my candles and matches go…
