Computer crash blues

jmlpoeticblues

Windows 10 done got corrupted and burned out last week.. and the home built PC my youngest son constructed from scratch with it.

He took my studio PC it to the repair shop a week ago

But when he brought it back home this week it still refused to boot up with it.

I have a laptop that lacks an audio input jack and producing my weekly blues show on it isn't an option.

I'm stuck in my lonely 'ol studio hoping for a virtual miracle

And since I'm retired I don't have the money to pay for the repairs and rebuilding it.

 

So here I am at the house...wondering what I could do

Walking once again through that boring lonely valley of gloom too.

 

Radio has been my passion from the get go

Though I'm feelin' like a loser once again

Tryin' to fill the void left long ago by Elwood Blues

At a little low power FM station at Indian Lake.

 

Jesus and Mary please intercede and intervene for me

And for my cynical wife and sons three

Who arrogantly left the Catholic faith

I'm a father and a husband ...still feelin' like a loser

And yet I'm feeling so down and out and ever so lonely.

  • L. B. Mek

    lonesome are we, that seek
    peace in a world
    attuned
    to turmoil and angst
    but at least you're better of
    than most of us
    you still have a faith to seek
    guidance and help from
    most of us, see warzone
    space stations for future
    generations to inherit
    when we get a chance
    to look up and imagine..
    even devoid of any theological alignment
    I've always gravitated to that serenity prayer
    'God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and Wisdom to know the difference.'
    'stay' strong! thanks for sharing
