Vive la Vie…!

(Live the Life…!)

Vive la Vie my friend!

Digital age to the end!

My eyes are really tired, sore and straining

Would it have more kudos if I were “Nintendo” brain training?

Maybe I should get myself really “Wii” fit

Or is there a “Playstation” body detox kit?

All this computerisation has many plus sides

But the stresses and strains I cannot hide

Repetitive stress injuries to my wrists

I’ll pen that on “Facebook” – Yes! With a twist

Vive la Vie my friend!

Digital age to the end!

Maybe I should SMS all my friends

Or twitter in a chat room that never ends

Maybe Sky has back-to-back movies that are exciting

Actually, a walk outside sounds much more enticing

Fresh air to fill my lungs and a DSLR to capture the essence

Can’t wait to get my “Apple” loaded with my digital presence

Then I’ll use Photoshop to place me in France

And Illustrator to artistically and subtly enhance

So what am I worried about with all my aches and pains?

It could be worse I could have to commute daily by train

When all is said and done, typed, spell checked and saved

I’ll be able to savour my dinner that has been gourmet micro waved!!
