The Broken Typewriter

She dolefully looked down upon her typewriter.
How could she write her story without the complete set of keys?
She never thought of it before, but one missing key could turn her whole plot off-center.

Few people understood her trouble when she quickly rushed to the neighbourhood store.
Not even the intellectuals could comprehend why she seemed so bothered.

The moment the store clerk fixed the typewriter’s keys, she let out her sigh of relief.
Never would she forget the power one little key could have.
