A Cornered Gurl

Autocorrect Blues #7

I Swype “comments”
and it is swiftly switched to
“currents.”
Oh, how quickly
the tides of life
shift.

AutoCorrect Blues #6

I type “bowls”
Autocorrect makes it
“Bowels,”
I suppose it wants me
To reconsider
“Cheat days.”

Autocorrect Blues #5

03/26/201803/26/2018trE

I Swype “journey”
Autocorrect changes it
To “Jernee”
Not this time, Autocorrect.
For once, I’m
Not talking about her.

AutoCorrect Blues #4

I Swype “exquisite”
and Autocorrect changes it
to “satirize.”

What?
Huh?
Autocorrect,
get it together!

AutoCorrect Blues #3

03/02/201803/02/2018trE

I Swype “writing”
and Autocorrect replaces it
with “worrying.”

sighs

Give me a break.
Am I that transparent?
