Morning Pages

Writing morning pages is what I need to do.

I did them for years, close to daily.

Julia Cameron in setting down the rules

insists they be by hand and I did for a while

but cannot read my handwriting. 

Since June 10, five months and six days,

I've typed one key at a time and have

typed a lot of characters that way.

This poem is the first  since then

for which I've tried to keep my fingers

on the assigned keys. Writing
is a tool I need. And trusting fingers
to hit the keys is like trusting HP
to have my back. And practice
makes both work better.
