Luddite.

Machine breaker,
Can’t hack the computer age
Artificial life taker,
Chaos from your digital rage,
Breaking up technology,
That threatens to take your job,
You won’t get an apology,
Because you are just a slob,
Indecisive, Over paid,
You know your in the wrong,
But you see your hair has greyed,
The time you’ve got left ain’t long.

Great job on this one Zu! I did think that the last line would be better as "The time that you've got left ain't long." It adds to the rhythm for me, at least, but do as you wish.

I'm sorry I missed this one the first time around. Very nice job, Andrew. I like this one.. it seems like you're very angry. Well this is a good way to vent.
Nicely done.

Nicely done. I liked this one a lot. Sounds like a middle aged man.....something we'll all become, yes even the women here.
You're all gonna turn into middle aged men.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Hmmmmm.....I wonder who this poem is actually written for

So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S.
