It’s not just about having
A computer
It’s not just
About being on
The net with
my
Friends.
And being
Able to chat
Back and fourth
On a daily basics
As much as you want.
You see as most of
You I’m in a wheelchair
Because I have cp
It’s effected my hands
I can’t write with a pen
If I do it’s looks all messy
It’s hard to make out what
Lies in between.
That’s why
When my computer
Is out of commission
I feel like apart of me is
Missing. I’m not able
To communicate with
Friends who live far
Way at college
I miss them
Because I
Can’t chat
With them.
I write poetry
As you might’ve
Noticed can’t
Say what I’m feeling when
Computer is out of
Commission so
What I’m saying
Having a computer
Is more then just
Having the internet to me
It’s about opening doors to
The outside world for me
You see?

great piece Lory, suggestion, try some how to get a handheld cassette recorder for times when computer is down or perhaps you wake in middle of night and just want to jot ideas for a piece and don't have paper handy to do so..
