Good Old Paper and Pen

Woe be me
Woe be gone
(c)pix2012FrancesOhanenye
That appointment not kept
Failing to commit to her bidding
The head honcho’s heralding
I committed it to phone’s memory
Saving mine for love’s recordings
Waiting to hear beeping summon
Company policy killed the sound
All phones lost monologic voices
Should have committed it
That appointment not kept
To good old paper and pen
Needing no sound, just presence

Woe be me
Woe be gone
That appointment not kept
Cost me my job
No tears wept
Something better
This way comes

--My dream has loved paper so much for so long because it gave influence to the parched voice of a fashionista poet. Finding this outlet, that voice is now replete with expressive sound.
