Immune to a power surge
I sit alone & quietly type
Not affected by technology
Refuse to be your modern gripe
I switched off my terrestrial radio
But I’ll still pound at these keys
I’m not cool or a trendy guy
I’m reserved, doing as I please
There’s never been an audience
Just a few genuine folks
Sharing myself sparingly
I’m better with these slow strokes
I’ll continue to conjure ideas
Preferring to use my typewriter
Nothing fancy; just a love of words
Old, but I can still pull an all nighter
Oustanding! and on a corona!. Cheers mate, be safe and well. greetings from Oz! 🙂

Ah, yes, there’s something to be said for a manual typewriter, especially when storms knock out the power. (Of course, there’s an equal magic about Cut and Paste, right?!)

Which is why I write poetry on typewriters and my fiction on computers. Even artists must be practical sometimes
