Lost dexterity since fingers tap away at qwerty keyboard

Lost dexterity since fingers tap away at qwerty keyboard... since being a student in grade, junior and high school analogous to geometry proof how lack of use proves quite aware that finger muscles atrophied veering off on a tangent referencing contra dance moves starting with hands for four and ones (the couple closest to the stage) cross over, whereat the twos when they reach the head or foot of line become the new ones thus behooves participants to listen carefully to the caller who if an adept caller will successfully facilitate dancers to establish getting into their grooves. Won't cha be my partner in rhythm and rhyme symbiotically sharing transient time lasting number of moments reading of this poem takes? Don't write no more no more no more ad infinitum, hence lost manual dexterity since fingers tap away at qwerty keyboard, and no longer bend with ease long since forgotten Peterson handwriting method when sited at awards assembly courtesy stunning statuesque sixth grade teacher Miss Rita Rinderle at Henry Kline Boyer elementary school (one class per grade) long since repurposed as Play & Learn back in the day mid ninety sixties, when yours truly handily being painstakingly meticulous, I as iterated above received certificate posted for all the webbed wide world rather residents residing within environs of Evansburg, Pennsylvania, (one little town - time forgot, and the years could not improve - similar to Lake Wobegon a fictional town in Minnesota - the setting for a weekly segment on his radio show A Prairie Home Companion created by the inimitable Garrison Keillor, yours truly a diehard avid fan, who oftentimes references Powdermilk Biscuits are usually described as "Made from whole wheat raised in the rich bottomlands of the Lake Wobegon river valley by Norwegian bachelor farmers), now those made up (videre licet) imaginary folks frozen someplace in time, “where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children above average.” "Fine motor coordination"- small, precise movements; essentially, the opposite of large-scale coordination is small-scale coordination used for tasks like writing, & buttoning, and picking up small objects, & threading a camel thru the eye of a needle, & other impossible miraculous missions such as drawing winning Mega Million or Powerball ticket(s), or being blessed with eternal life in an effort to read most every book under the sun, and duly patronize my mother tongue - that being the english language amalgamation originated when Germanic tribes, primarily the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes (collectively called Anglo-Saxons), perforce migrated to Britain from what is now northwest Germany in the fifth century, displacing the Celtic languages spoken by the native population and establishing their own language, known as "Old English," a blend of four main dialects: Kentish, Mercian, Northumbrian, and West Saxon, which is considered the foundation of modern English, forever primarily affected by globalization, technology, social media, migration patterns, and the influence of other languages, leading to the adoption of new words, slang, and variations in grammar, particularly through the rapid evolution of online communication and widespread use of English in various cultures and regions. Diminution of micro movements such as flexing digits on the hand, whereat the most common word for how to hold a pencil or pen is called a "tripod grip," where the pencil held between the thumb, index finger, and middle finger, forming a tripod-like structure, though without hands, one could arduously train themselves to clamp the big toe in place of the thumb - known as the hallux, this is the innermost toe and is the largest toe, and most important toe for balance and swing within the domain of contra dancing, a social and physical foot stomping, hew hawing, and kick staring most fun one can experience while being clothed, which flirtatious (linkedin to vestial courtship) close encounters of the seductive kind allows, enables, and provides non verbal tête-à-tête, which quite public communication showcases superb intricate fancy footwork equals dancing under the stars in terms exhibiting athleticism, exoticism, lyricism, and poeticism and perfectly displays Newton's First Law of Motion in motion stating an object in motion will continue in motion with a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force; essentially, an object resists changes in its state of motion unless a force acts on it.
