I sense how tired you must feel, <br />The keyboard neath your nose, <br />Another poem to reveal <br />Before your day must close... <br />And so I'm helping you this time, <br />Some poem just for YOU... <br />For when it's hard to think or rhyme, <br />You haven't got a clue... <br /> <br />Enjoy the QWERTY letters there <br />Pressed on your forehead still, <br />The spacebar's in your mouth, take care, <br />If swallowed, you'll be ill... <br />You've lost Control unless you SHIFT, <br />You can't Escape your fate, <br />As long as you've been cast adrift, <br />To dreamlands you create... <br /> <br />Though you can't Function while asleep, <br />You can't win dozing, friend... <br />You feel at Home while speakers bleep, <br />As you yet reach day's End... <br />Page Up, Page Down, Insert, Delete, <br />Your typing's random now, <br />I hope at least your dreams are sweet, <br />Some insights to allow... <br /> <br />You may awake, when all dreams cease, <br />Perchance to shine again, <br />To share a brand new masterpiece <br />That's quite beyond our ken! <br />So dream on, friend, I understand, <br />Yes, all us poets do... <br />Though writing poems can be grand, <br />It's hard at half-past-two... <br /> <br /> <br />Denis Martindale, copyright, November 2013.<br /><br />Denis Martindale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poem-for-the-lazy-poet/
