Art Project - poem

A dark little corner at the end of the room,
A small bright screen burning into my eyes,
into my thoughtless goo of a brain,
Laughters and voices echo in the background
but i pay no mind to them
what matters now, are the sounds of the keys crackling away
as i try to level Angela up to become a sorceress,
chat with my friends,
and watch whatever i want.

"honey come with me to the store"
no

"turn off that computer!"
just a few more minutes

hours later

"you need to get off that computer now!"
silence

3:30 am
bed time

wake up and do it again.

My art is probably a mirror, because it just reflects what other people already know, like how people stay up all night on the computer, or on their x-box playing games with other people online, and how its unhealthy for us since we get little sleep, which can lead to weight gain, acne, loss/increase in appetite, and depression.
When i look at my art i don't really feel anything, because i know things like this happen its nothing new, and i know its not good, but sometimes we just cant help but stay up late on our devices, like if its for school work. So to me my art isn't really anything outstanding, the only thing i think of thats even a little interesting is that, in the picture i drew the person's soul is being sucked into the computer and the persons eyes are reddish from lack of sleep giving a daze-ish look in her eyes, adding onto the whole zombie look.

  1. maxiel,

    if you change the line to "just a few minutes more" you'll have a nice rhyme.
