Rising thunderstorm
Sudden rain slamming my roof
Passing overhead.

Sharp lightning flashes
Interrupt work on the screen
Computer goes blank.

Distant thunderclap
Computer is rebooting
Nothing I wrote lost....

Type across my heart's keyboard 
Harshly, you broke my keys
No repair do my intrical parts 
My function will never be the same 
You played me like a game 
Only I remain to blame
Never again will I allow you to touch my monitor 
My hard drive was corrupted in a spontaneous blur
Currently rebooting.......

Dear Lordy, what have you done
this loony spouse given me…
he rants and TV- clicks all night
much like a  freakish banshee!

Obsessed with horror movies
remote  control is life's drug:
This model needs rebooting,
It's time for urgent de-bug.

Yes, you shut me down.
But I'm rebooting.
I start again, for this is my destiny to begin again.
I will do better than ever, to make one laugh, cry and celebrate.

Yes, I will come alive, with Hope, Joy and well being.
You will love me even more.

So, check on me each week for something new.
Maybe even exciting. For I m rebooting....

I welcome the feeling
of leaving behind …
No Facebook, no Twitter
no Email to blind

Controlling the message
undigitized truth
My mind free of programs
my spirit induced

Where magic is whispered
no texting or bytes
Bespoken the voices
I hear in the night

My memory stays active
not stored in the Cloud
Rebooting what’s under
— enlightenment’s shroud

Late one night
I decided to write...
While musing in silence
My computer was in defiance

As I scooted to the keys
My thoughts began to be un-eased
As the program stood still
I kept rebooting until~

I realized what was happening
That ole boy needed new programming
He kept doing the rebooting boogie
‘Til every virus was gleaned, and tossed away-- Happily
There’ll be no more of that boogying today...
