Three Art Ships Sunk In Electronic Shutdown Poem by Terence George Craddock

Three Art Ships Sunk In Electronic Shutdown



in dregs a sea of litter corks mind bobs about unhappy
laptop died shut down in an instant without warning
sinking three superb poems ships caught on sudden rocks
sinking fast lost forever sinking sightless sea depth oblivion
in dregs wine sea litter corks mind bobs about lifeless

A sad demise and a great dirge in their honour

This is bad. You should keep saving it from time to time so that you don't lose all.

I do this sometime, sometimes I lose poems, it hurts, but I write more faster better this way, I gain more than I lose; I wrote 'A Chance Strike Gold Rush Fevered Run' back in 2016 about this.

the problem with saving is that I do not write as well, to save or not to save, not stopping to save means writing better, perhaps the constant saved work is not worth saving
