Clicket Clacket
steel brackets retract
Ticket Tacket
punching and pressing
*********DING***********
cylander end paper bend
sticky inky ribbons replaced
fingers bleeding words
and every letter let loose
so much tact and impact
on old touchy typewriters
slamming down soliloquies
punching out poems
fast forward forty years
Seems like this keyboard
just doesnt feel the same
with prose made of pixels
in a dull picture frame
but at the end of the day
what difference does it make
my thoughts spilled on a page
for you to give or take.
