Minakhi Misra

My hands got used to pen and page
And find it hard to type with grace
Upon the QWERTY on the Mac
Which used to be the only place
I wrote my lines in for my verse
And wrote my lies in for my work.
Though now my thumbs can swipe a screen,
The other fingers feel a jerk
As I attempt to type on Mac
The type of things that make me doubt
If this is what I studied for,
If this is what my life’s about.
