    To be honest

       I needed

     A small child

          Then

The links between

   Digital projector

            And

       Computer

 Would have taken

    Two minutes

           Not

      Two hours

 What tortured mind designed the parking meter,

Demanding not just any old donation

But, even before it will spew out a ticket,

Requires that you tap out your registation.

That of course assumes you can recall

The number and don't need to stride off back

To find the car and write it on your hand,

Only to find when you return a lack

Of logic in the buttons, which some fool

Has laid out vertically - as if we're all Chinese-

Crammed together and all below eye level

With markings that aren't large enough to read.

          Technology is getting far too bold -

          Or can it be that I am growing old?
