Different people are adept at different things,
Some people drive vehicles, others never learn,
Some are good at DIY, others fine it best
to get their DIY needs met by amenable friends
and later repay them in kind.
Some find technology easy whist others lose their nerve,
after losing the message they had taken ages to edit,
by 'pressing the wrong button', but they retrieve
a botched version of it from the machine that is okay,
but it is clearly not what they really wanted to say.
They would have been better off making notes
before ringing a friend, and quoting them in a live conversation.
A klutz has to manage being a klutz;
as adults they have to get by surely knowing
that how their lives were managed and mangled
where when they were young is a difficult domain to explore.
By nothing annoys them more than being told,
of some function on their smartphone 'It's easy to use',
by somebody who knows always knows best
what to press and why (and why not) to press it.
The clever chap did not intend
to condescend,
but leaves the klutz smarting...
