Technically Speaking

My dram ram has spent  it's last byte
MS word won't type another poetic wishful might
India calling techie says charge $$ that visa
   and PC will be good for a few years

Over the phone line and through the Dell
  to better 'puting we go
The geek knows the way
  to carry away
   my short and dwindling dough!

Over the phone line and through the Dell
   Charge what?? this is starting to smell!!
The geek knows he may talk away
  my sanity Hey!!

This PC still don't 'poot!!

You'll probably save yourself mucho dinero by just buying another one. After trying to have the old one fixed and finding it still didn't work right we learned. We went to WallMart and bought a Acer. It works a lot better. Nice job my friend. Good luck. God Bless, JB

Doris, I like your humor here. We have all been taken in this game. Thanks for your comments awhile back on my poems. I was an editor for a time.

I have a Dell too but paid for the software contract and it was well worth it when mine crashed. Talk about trauma! I appreciated this one.

Down with the dastardly geeks! Down with the computer companies for not including instructions with their instruments. I believe the geeks pay them off. Good write. Love, daver

I agree my friend. Satan invented computers to get at me personally. I get so mad I just about lose all my religion right in front of God and everybody. However if he makes special efforts to get at me I must be doing something right so that's a good thing. Right? God Bless, JB :)

this is a funny poem even though I feel your pain, Doris. We've had a couple of those sessions spending hours on the phone trying to get something done with even warranties. I enjoyed your poem. If it's for a contest it should do well.
