What lines!

I've stopped handwriting
I've broken up with the lines and curls of my pen strokes
I was too enamored with its curves
I actually wrote so that someone would find my book and comment, "what handwriting"
I cared so much for the strokes and its look that the words meant nothing
The words always seem to mean nothing when I look back and read them
But at least this way I can blame the technology that lets me throw my words up into some cloud and they travel from one device to another
I can say something is lost when the words travel so much
At least now I don't have to commit my hand to some new word
I can delete and delete to my heart's content
And I can blame technology for taking the meaning out of the word
Because it sure as hell can't be my fault
I'm fucked
