I sink into the Burgundy leather cushions, Like sitting in a pool of silky smooth velvet. Watching a black box.

The box taunts me Like a nightmare haunts My dreams at night; I am stuck under its spell.

Hours pass by like Seconds ticking on a clock. Day after day, It's the same; Watching the screen endlessly.

I turn the TV To the "Discovery Channel" Where I watch a show called "The Science Fair." Suddenly I remember, My science project is due tomorrow.

I rush to create an experiment That is quick and simple. I fly through the test trials And struggle to start the poster.

I work throughout the night, Until I have finally completed the project. When I arrive at school, I notice many careless errors in my writing That I cannot change.

I anxiously turned in the assignment And received an upsetting grade That I sadly deserved.

Every project after that, The TV was off limits From the day the task was assigned, To the due date. And every project after that Was worth an A+. || ||
