Ode to Video Games
January 13, 2013
Other people say I waste my time.
Other people say it’s not real.
The game might not be real,
But the experiences are.
I’ve experienced entire epics through a “waste of time.”
I’ve experienced entire universes gracefully constructed my lines of code.
Lines of code that other people “wasted their time on.”
But yet a series of binary numbers evoke emotions that waking life struggles of replicate.
