Applying for a Visa

Watch two older people

Struggle with technology 

When applying for a visa -

Yes, I mean my spouse and me.


You will laugh at their ineptitude 

When working on the app 

As they try to scan a passport page

And each repeated tap


Is rejected, so they try once more

To find the blasted chip,

Wond’ring if it’s really worth it

To be going on this trip.


If you stick around, you’ll get to see

When they are almost done,

That a message will pop up to say,

As if it’s all been fun,


That there seems to be a problem

So they’ll have to start again.

An emoji for frustration 

Might describe what happens then.


Yet, despite their stress, they manage,

Only screaming just a bit,

To complete the forms requested

And successfully submit.
