Farewell, typewriter,
now you've gone away.
Overdemanding and underfed
to visions unheard of in any bed.
I checked my mailbox,
but you weren't inside.
Would calling be trouble?
I bet it would be.
Please greet the angel with courtesy.
Full color pictures
of a black and white world,
a slow dissolve
as a new scene's unfurled.
I'm tired, so tired
my jaw won't move,
never providing a method to prove
that we love typewriter
more than she'll know.
Searching through cupboards
to reprobate
the evil bestowed her
when she was eight.
No dollar signs in her asterisk face.
Now just a hyphen and I can't replace.
Farewell, typewriter.
I love typewriter
more than he'll know.
Who said that being
in one place was dull?
I never answered
when my arms were full.
I'm never competing
with history again.
I'm never to write
on typewriter, my friend.
