Only Human

Folder: 
SISA

A human looks at two PCs

The Intel Inside 386 and a Pentium

And admires the faster, better

And the more expensive Pentium.



A Pentium looks at two humans

One who is computer illiterate

And the other a program prodigy

And it works magic with the Prodigy.



A computer looks at another computer,

One that is faster, better, has more memory

It gets happier and asks if it can

Share tasks or store files in the other.



A human looks at another human,

One that is faster, better, or even good looking

It gets unhappy and says, "Why you?

Why not me, or the other human down the street?"





                Don't worry; we are only human.
