Writer's Cramp Here I Come

Writer's cramp here I come... (to the rescue and save the day and hoop fully a damsel in distress!) Impending thunderstorm "FAKE" MAGA (nah) if fuss sent) thwarted, torpedoed - dag nabbit, and trumped assigned, mandated, and self selected online poetic writing session. Yours truly forced to re-learn (ASAP) at greased lightning speed archaic pre-internet state of stone age Neanderthal fashion scribbling. Throwback versus instant electronic, excel (lent) and/or accessible wireless modern twenty first century glorious, illustrious, and marvelous cyber space sand trap convenience. Primitive pinched chicken scratch unwittingly, albeit long since atrophied, compromised, skully mouldered, and penultimately quashed (innocuously) manually cumbersome art grinding fingers to the bone sorely missed (ha) archaic crimping methodology. Etchings on papyrus long since went the way of rubber baby buggy bumpers (sincerely Amish immensely) reducing das dada do little (spur of the moment sobriquet) to revel opportunity pecking out chicken scratch, I will own sole misfortune to attempt deciphering, when long reign of Zeus subsides. One doth not realize technological advantage until adversity sidetracks innovation to brainstorm without compromising legibility. Hmm...I wonder if there might be an app for that long lost painstaking effort to get the lead (er graphite) out???
