A Poem and Backstory

“An Ode to Access”

 

I have this problem

for some reason

I cannot comment on what happened.

I’ve lost my password.

I cannot access my g-mail account

when I try

to leave a comment.

G-mail is not my friend.

 

My account says that I am signed-in,

but I cannot get access.

I have reset the password many times

but can never get in afterward.

G-mail is not user-friendly.

 

I just wanted to say

I read your post on pronouns.

After reading it,

I need to make some coffee.

 

This problem is undoubtedly 

a challenge to deal with

and I deserve a blue ribbon.

 

 

  End.
