Log in... Log out
The daily trouble follows me about
The same old pounding in my heart
When I get disconnected, I think of it
Log in... Log out
Log out... Log in
I needn't tell you how my days begin
When I log in, I log in with a shudder
One possibility in view
That possibility of maybe not staying on
Come rain... come shine
I log in and the day is fine
Then I switch screens and the anxiety begins
The possibility of staying connected remains thin
But I know it’s temporary? Can there be any doubt
When there it is, Log in... Log out
Inspired by
Day In, Day Out
Words and music by
Johnny Mercer and Rube Bloom
as performed by Diana Krall

I can always listen to Diana and you!
With the site being fragile at the moment, it seems to be operating on two planes. 'Home' (for me) shows all the stories posted but is nearly 3 hours behind on comments. The 'Log on' comes up frequently but doesn't make any difference. 'My Stories' is well behind in registering 'reads' and kudos. I keep getting the little gremlin logo at top left but it disappears and morphs into the spinning dots when I try to change the function. Still, it all works after a fashion.
I love Diana Krall’s singing
And your poetry is always great!
I’ve been singing along with Diana Krall and K D Lang for my voice therapy.
