Poems for you: A letter of complaint from a computer to the human race

Thursday, January 12, 2012

By May Kwek

First of all let’s get this straight

I am a computer not a human okay?

I have taken over this human’s mind

To write the thoughts on my mind

Actually they are complaints

About the too numerous human race

And how they treat the computer kind

And yet still think that we are fine

First of all what I hate about a man

Is his very very sweaty hands

Which he uses to grab my mouse

And to trash it all about

And why must you hurt my keyboard?

By ruthlessly banging away?

Is it because you are bored

And because I have no say?

And yet another thing

Is this habit of yours

That when I am slow

You turn me off

I am working on the problem

But you won’t give me the time

So don’t blame me

When I give you the error sign

And one more thing

I like the cool

So remember to put me

In an air conditioned room!

But now I must end

This human is waking up

Take note of what I’ve said

And be careful with your cup!

Yours sincerely,

The Computer
