Computer Poem


A computer was something on TV from a science fiction show of note. A window was something you hated to clean and ram was the cousin of a goat.


Meg was the name of my girlfriend and gig was a job for the nights. Now they all mean different things and that really mega bytes.


An application was for employment. A program was a TV show. A cursor used profanity. A keyboard was a piano.


Memory was something that you lost with age. A CD was a bank account. And if you had a 3 inch floppy, you hoped nobody found out.


Compress was something you did to the garbage, not something you did to a file and if you unzipped anything in public, you'd be in jail for a while.


Log on was adding wood to the fire. Hard drive was a long trip on the road. A mouse pad was where a mouse lived and a backup happened to your commode.


Cut you did, with a pocket knife. Paste you did with glue. A web was a spider's home and a virus was the flu.


I guess I'll stick to my pen and paper and the memory in my head. I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash but when it happens they wish they were dead!
