My mirror, my computer screen.
My computer screen is neat. It’s like a mirror. I stare at it. I feel like I’m looking at myself. Sometimes, I forget. So, I look really hard. When I find myself I think “There I am.” Then, the magic happens. I see myself everywhere. It’s nice to see me everywhere. There’s nothing I like better.
When I don’t know what to do, which is most of the time, I look at my computer screen. I see myself there, think “There I am.” It’s the perfect reflection of me. I keep thinking “This is me. This is me.” It’s like looking at a sun. When I look at my computer screen, I become blind to everything but me. But, that’s okay. There’s nothing I like better.
What’s nice about my computer screen is that it’s like a mirror that talks to me. I look at my computer screen, see that “Tom” or “Kate” or “Sean” or “Paula” is talking to me. I say things back, usually “Yes” or “Okay” or “What time?” But, mostly I say “I don’t know.” But, my computer screen is really nice. It says important things, responds to complex problems, resolves matters. When I talk to it, it answers. When I want to meet the people on the screen, the screen reminds me that they are only a mirror, my reflection.
My computer screen provides me with countless employment possibilities. Even during these tough times, my computer screen says “Here, there’s opportunity.” I push a button and my computer screen does things that make life enjoyable. It connects me to life, provides me with everything that’s me. I know my life is me. But, my computer screen shows me that I am life. There’s nothing I like better.
