Cyberspace and Melted Digitals (revised #2)

I’ve been having computer problems for over a month and appropriately I have dug up this old poem and revised it … However, some good news today, my brother said that the computer is fixable and he has started the refurbishment process

Cyberspace and Melted Digitals


This crazy, distorted cyberspace

Can be a dishonest place

Like talking to aliens from outer space

False profiles with no trace


I dislike the blank screen’s cool embrace

Documents unreadable at the coalface

As if they’re hiding from the human race

Or that grand theft of the writer’s database


I’d like to tie together their ” Boot” laces

See them tumble and fall from grace

Straight down the duck-muck-covered staircase

And melt all their digital’s in the fireplace

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

  1. I love your poem Ivor. 🙂

    I wish someone could fix my old body just as easily as fixing a computer, restore my memory and leave all my files intact! 😂

    As you know my old computer also had a new hard drive and now it’s working faster than ever, but I was fortunate to have a laptop as a back up.

    I think of my computers as my trusty companions and technology as a friend, and
    I think your computer will be very grateful for giving it a 💜transplant. 🙂 🤗

      1. Love it! I’m glad he’s on the mend.
        I’ve been using my laptop lately because of a trapped nerve in my neck; holding my head up is painful, and by necessity I’ve had to cut down on my WordPress time. I miss using my computer. 🙂

  2. Oh, I am so happy your computer is fixable! 🙂
    YAY for your brother and his wonderful expertise and help! 🙂 ❤️
    All tech-stuff is amazing and fabulous until it conks out on us. (HA!) I find some inanimate objects, and especially tech-stuff, to be like faithful friends and I am sad when then can no longer work. Computers are so important in our connections to people/to the world. 🙂
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️
