Why Do You Waste So Much Time
My village is alive and well
My sheep are bleating
I have discovered diamonds in my cave
Someone calls me for supper.
Not now Mom!
I am in the throes of happiness
Inside my pixelated city
A new enemy is attacking.
“Dinner is ready!”
Whatever we are having will have to wait.
Minecraft is delightfully relaxing.
I am joyful as I annihilate the enemy.
Score!
Mom comes to my room.
Why do you waste so much time on that game?
Think Super Mario Mom.
She looks at me.
Rolls her eyes and leaves.
I knew I would get her with that one.
