iSight - a poem(!)

Blessed with the vision of a kite,
his dad proud that it was from his side

Reading distant boards and signs were his hobbies,
much to the anger of his sister who wore soda buddis

In spite of being among bats who complained of headaches,
who got prescription glasses by a wily doctor, making no mistakes

He was blessed.

But as the saying goes, "pride goes before fall",
he started playing video games, illegal cable and all

Time passed, he noticed a change in his blessing,
but pretended that it was just in passing

Working with computers did not help matters,
for his rods and cones were getting away in platters

Seeing his friend leave his glasses on the table, he tried it
wonders and curses!, the room seemed clearer; damn it!

The angel on his right shoulder said "don't worry; LASIK in due course",
but the devil on his left grinned: "not your dad's, your mom's side, of course"
