Poem Artwork


One hour is just NOT
enough time to do all I
need to accomplish

on the computer -
stupid time limits have been
strictly enforced ... and

I cannot stand it.
How can I check my e-mails
and read and review

all of your poems
and write one of own
that is worth reading

in less than one hour?
It can't be done, so I ask
for your forgiveness

if I don't get to
your poem or leave reviews:
it is not my fault.

I appreciate
YOU, dear Readers, for reading
all of my poems,

for understanding,
and now I have less than five
minutes to end this!

I just can't take the
pressure ... is having to meet
a deadline like this????

(c) 2005, Karla Dorman.

I understand this type of frustration as I use to have to use the library as well. One of the ways I helped out the time limits is I would have my poem written at home and ready to post the moment I got to the library. Handsum Hart had a good point too............I was on the computer too much when I first got my freedom back........now I enjoy nature a lot more :-)

(((Karla)))

I agree the hour time limit IS stupid, especially if it isn't busy; but that is the rules, unfortunately, and we must abide by them. Just be glad you get on at ALL! I know I am! Great write; I wish things would change myself. Maybe it will; we can only hope! RAnt on, baby gurl! I hear ya, and I feel your frustration, too!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :(

Sometimes less computer time is a good thing.
As this allows you to enjoy many other things.

Best wishes

Eileen has a very good idea on using your computer time, and as she said we will be here...I got my first home computer three years ago from a young man who buys out dated ones from corp. who up date theirs. He cleaned it out and put Windows in and sold them to folks who couldn't afford a new one, I paid $75.00 for a tower, screen, keyboard...maybe you have someone that does that in your area...keep writing..
peace and love, Carole

I hope you continue to share when you can. As for me, I'd rather read your work than have a nice comment or two on my own. And, if you happen to be talking about public library time limits, be glad you have an hour. My computer at home is well at the moment, but our "limit" is 20 minutes now..... Dawn

I think you must write when you feel the urge, review when you want and enjoy the gift God has favored you with.
