My Computer

by Cathy Vogan

I love my computer

It never tells me lies

Bill Gates knew at thirteen

It never asks you why

I love my puppy

She never tells me lies

She shows me affection

And bites the bad guys

I love good music

It never tells me lies

My heart beats in rhythm

And I harmonize

I love my mirror

It never tells me lies

It tells me I'm ageing

With love in my eyes

I love my companion

He's just stopped telling lies

He tells me he's leaving

It makes me want to die
