I read about it on
Wikipedia, definition
from the Greek,
science of craft.
recalling I could not
drive a car, do not
have a cell phone,
barely manage my own pc.
Ironically, in one detour,
I earned a living,
for three winter months in a
computer room at
senior citizens center
“teaching” how to turn one on,
when most of them wanted
to play on-line bingo.
My success was showing
at least two women how
to get started, and would
share another would-be
artist information about
important people in
Afro-American history,
printing out photos he
used as models to draw.
While writing this I
used technology while
adding boiling water
to grains of instant
coffee as a break from
poetry and words.
God tells me she did not
want me to be a technocrat.
