Technology!

Technology is a blessing at times,

And yet it's also a curse.

Hackers and scammers glom onto it with

A glee that's sick and perverse.

 

You always have to take precautions

And be on your guard in case

A demon is out there lurking behind

A corner in cyberspace.

 

That's a hassle, or course, but frankly,

It's also a hassle when

Programs and apps keep being updated

Over and over again!

 

I just get used to how one works,

Which takes me a while to do,

When all of a sudden an update occurs,

And I have to start anew.

 

Sometimes the features I used to like

On both my computer and phone

No longer exist. Why can't they leave

Well enough alone?

 

I'm not a Luddite, by any means,

And change one can't dismiss;

But, app designers, please have pity;

I'm getting too old for this!
