Hour 17 (Marathon Prompt – write about an obsolete or soon to be obsolete form of technology)
EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT IT
Ink on paper soon could be
Obsolete technology
Daily news in paper form
May soon no longer be the norm
On a screen you’ll need to look
When you long to read a book
Cards and letters won’t come by mail
Best hope your internet won’t fail
I can relate. I worked as a reporter for six years and glad i got out when I did. It’s not dead yet, but someday soon. Great work.
