Not Vcrs

Not VCR’S
By: Tom Wright

In our youth,
we search for the fast forward button of life.
Then later, in our maturing years,
search for rewind or eject buttons;
finally realizing that life,
simply starts, records, and stops.
Will your recording be edited before it stops?

Quoth Theraven March 10, 2019 at 6:51 PM I like this poem. The real trick to Not VCRs is to keep your heads and cassettes clean, and keep sweet drinks and snacks away. Else the tape may spit out and get caught on the rollers (of life metaphorically speaking)
