Digital Jam

Dabbling in the digital dynamic
 Where ones and zeros tock and tick
 There's no need for two and threes
 Motherboards dont like them, she leaves them on the keys

  Downloads are slow, the digits won't flow
 An upgrade is needed, a message says so!
 Wifi is shaky, it's not up to par
 Need some more gadgets to make it a star
 
 Memory is tripping, it's never enough
 Storage is full, those zeros don't bluff
 I got more RAM for this digital jam
 Now I'm cruising without popups, but here comes spam!

 Don't call your ISP if something goes wrong
 They'll give you a dance, then give you a song
 Just try something, it may do the trick
 And let those ones and zeros tock and tick!

Softly smiling at you. :) Let's move slow when the computer does and then zoom on by, when it decides to. You never know what will happen next. I love technology, when it works. Not so much, when it doesn't. This is cute and clever and so creative. Reads like a song. :) Brandy

Hello Joseph ... computers are great when they're working for you and you alone. But oh no, viruses, spam, plus a host of suspicious emails zoom in on us - enjoyed your poem Joseph - Lindsay
