  • Comment from author about the poem: STill working on a small screen but should be back to normal in a few days. Hoping my new laptop is ready later today. In the meantime apologies for not replying or commenting as much as usual - hope I can find my way round my new toy when I get it - I'm not very techie! ................... I quite like this little shortie - it came to me whilst thinking about what makes a poet.

          A MAN may not always act MANLY
          But XY chromosomes define him as a MALE
          Alas many WOMEN are not LADIES
          But XX chromosomes define them as FEMALES !
          The sign on the TOILET DOOR is the dividing line !

          What POETS write is not necessarily POETRY
          But what a POET writes is (alas) always written
          TRANSGENDER want to open all DOORS !

          Thanks MIKE for an enigmatic doublet

                Hit it Michael - that always works. Yes you're right - the man who writes the techie manuals isn't a poet.......

                • Michael Edwards

                  You are so right - where do they find technical authors? I was lucky - the store where I bought it set it up and transferred the data for me so its as if there was no change.

                  I'm no poet mate, I'm just in therapy here.

                  I live in fear of laptop death. I loathe learning new operating systems. Windows 95, 98, 98 SE, XP, Vista, & 7. Been through them all. You think i want to know about win 10?

                  • Michael Edwards

                    Win 10 as from this morning and getting on well with it thus far - old stack relegated to the cobweb infested garage
