Lost Connection Poem by Carolyn Brunelle

There’s a flash of hope;
Then nothing in response.
A light’s on in the box
But in the end
Nobody’s home.
You try and try
Everything you know
But you computer’s life
Just comes and goes.
So you ring, ring, ring that bell;
Call a technician who can tell
You what the hell’s going on.
It’s dead in the water you are,
Floating, and bloated
With so much to say.
But, 'find something else to do'
Is the only advice I have for you,
Because today your computer
Cannot wake up to play.
