I tap on my typewriter
Old-fashioned tho I be
I like the way keys clitter-clatter
Making poe…..

Keys stuck…. bother

Get a keyboard….

Poet Don is old school and likes to prepare his news reports
and lesson preparations on his old faithful Remington.
Despite no longer being able to buy replacement ribbons
he will continue tapping away until the letters
disappear into nothingness.
He refuses to go digital

Thanks Cassa. PD wants to be buried with his typewriter. Says it doesn’t need electricity to work down there. Can’t argue with that. Says he’s taking candles to see……

Ha… I remember the times when a typewriter was all you had to use, but around the time I finished my undergrad studies I left it behind… since then it’s been only a keyboard for me.

  The guy across the road used to repair and service them. The one you left behind is probably worth a mint now….
