Passwords, the bane of our lives; we can’t do without them, but they should be as memorable as a good glass of wine. Rickety Bridge is a vineyard in Franschhoek.

Wordpass

Wordpass, wrong, password
Locked out, fifth time today
Since I am not a nerd
What can I do, I pray
To make myself heard
In the digital way
Access denied, too absurd
What’s wrong with a birthday
Is Peggy’s name so wayward
Why not just Wales I say

No, alphanumeric sword
Slicing through my day
Every phrase like a clue for a crossword
One down, anagram of Uruguay
Worse than the cryptic bard
Upper case, lower case, keep it gray
Ampersand between brackets, that’s hard
Should be something I know, but they
Can’t hack, can’t crack my guard
I know, two thousand fifteen, Rickety Bridge

Franschhoek, South Africa, February 2018
