CELEBRITY IN TRAINING?

Or "Bored Child with Old Parents Can't Wait for School to Begin" (Next Wed!)



So I turn on my laptop, which is about two metres away from Meg's desk (and her new super-duper desktop computer with a 17" flat screen monitor), and I find this long, apparently stream-of-consciousness IM ("Instant Message") on my computer from someone with the screenname "Celebrity in Training" -- turns out to be Meg's idea of for a new online moniker (too much time in the USA??):



celebrity in training says:

boring day what a boring day i need someone to listen so i can poor out my heart and soul to them and fill them with crazy things from the box of pandora you know what I'm saying homey?

celebrity in training says:

you probabl don't

celebrity in training says:

becuz no one heres my voice of justice

celebrity in training says:

no one cares about the tin mouse that was able to fool the cat

celebrity in training says:

they drown me in silence becuz no one wants to know that I have accelerated in intelligence

celebrity in training says:

they never put me in the spot light becuz if they did they would only see air and dust from the cold dark stage that the invisible girl stood on

celebrity in training says:

thankyou for listening to the cries of a lost soul searching for the light

celebrity in training says:

to find piece and happiness

celebrity in training says:

not piece and quiet no becuz I got enough fof that from living on earth

celebrity in training says:

stop killing the people who r supposed to live and letting the people who are destined to die live..it will only create madness

celebrity in training says:

stop me if you have heard all about the secrets of the universe from the lost soul

celebrity in training says:

crying out for help and destined to help the souls of others

celebrity in training says:

if I die today I am happy how my life turned out and death will only make i better and easier to say that I am a good person

celebrity in training says:

if a person gets more than she paid for would she tell the shopkeeper that the receipt was wrong and that they gave her too much? Or would she stay silent and get away before the shopkeeper realised what they had done

celebrity in training says:

Or maybe it is the shopkeepers fault for putting extras in the bag on purpose becuz the shopkeeper thought the lady was beautiful and deserved more

celebrity in training says:

But one will never no who to blame for this money situation.



Is this where poetry is headed in the digital era?
