I read about it on<\/p>\n

Wikipedia, definition<\/p>\n

from the Greek,<\/p>\n

science of craft<\/em>.<\/p>\n

recalling I could not<\/p>\n

drive a car, do not<\/p>\n

have a cell phone,<\/p>\n

barely manage my own pc.<\/p>\n

Ironically, in one detour,<\/p>\n

I earned a living,<\/p>\n

for three winter months in a<\/p>\n

computer room at<\/p>\n

senior citizens center<\/p>\n

“teaching” how to turn one on,<\/p>\n

when most of them wanted<\/p>\n

to play on-line bingo.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

at least two women how<\/p>\n

to get started, and would<\/p>\n

share another would-be<\/p>\n

artist information about<\/p>\n

important people in<\/p>\n

Afro-American history,<\/p>\n

printing out photos he<\/p>\n

used as models to draw.<\/p>\n

used technology while<\/p>\n

adding boiling water<\/p>\n

coffee\u00a0as a break from<\/p>\n

poetry and words.<\/p>\n

God tells me\u00a0she did not<\/p>\n

want me to be a technocrat.<\/p>\n
