WHAT WILL YOU DO

What happens
when your favorite pen....dies of dehydration-
due to neglect and lack of love
What if it slowly died from ink UN-used
You know 
When modern technology caused you
to go paperless
When baring arms
was writes going penless
And those used-less pens
side eye-ing you in falling black tears
when the computer is the choice a writer usage
Now picture this
blue and blacks are holding silent elections
looking for a skill craft men
who won't pass up the aisle
where pens come in multiple selections
Papers and journals are joining the rally
fear of their own extinctions
buried in penmentaries
the home they will call Death Valley
So what happens
when your electronics goes down
Voice recorders aren't around
and you need to pen something down?
and Through it all
that pen your forcefully retired
will still be your corner
papers will lay flat, white, with collegiate lines
with red lines serving as the borders
Hands will become sweaty
possibly shake with grasp
unused muscle grips may cramp
scribing will look like heart monitors
while papers will pile up like trash
So what will you do
if the pen that got you started
do what you did to it
and later gives up de-penning ink for you
for writeless and voiceless spits........~TNW
