I Asked AI

I asked AI, “how do I feel?”
AI told me I feel great
But that I would feel even better 
If I just purchased a little item on line.

I asked AI, “why don’t I have anyone to talk to?”
AI told me that was because I had poor social skills
But that I could address this by purchasing a self-help book on line. 

I asked AI, “why do I have a crippling headache?”
AI told me that was because I was looking at a screen for too long
But that I could solve this by purchasing some special glasses on line.

I went outside and felt the sunshine on my face
I heard a bird sing and fly across the sky
My little dog got the zoomies and made me laugh
And I thought to myself yes, I already have everything I need.

It was there all along, so go out and have yourself an ice cream cone. 😀 And be happy with yourself.
