Turn 'em Off

I like to keep it 

That way 

If I can. 

When the computer gives me 

Trouble 

And the phone has 

Hiccups and 

Coughs 

I turn em 

Off 

I try not to be 

So wound up 

With them 

That I 

Give a damn! 

So I pay bills 

With paper 

Just like 

The old woman 

That I am 

I have an acquaintance 

Who if 

The computer would die 

He would loudly sigh 

And say 

So do I !

Panic time comes when 

The phone is 

Lost 

At what cost ? 

Ok 

So do

I -

But 

If it would truely die 

I 

Would in most ways 

Be relieved

I could again use 

Pen 

And paper 

And stop 

And look around 

What is the wind 

Doing 

Today

Where is the sun 

In the sky 

What is time ?
