Elvis and Marilyn Monroe stare at me from another land in a black frame while my fingers move across my Macbook's keys.
Both of my large bookcases full of novels, magazines, and more stare at me while my chest moves up and down with each inhale and exhale of breath.
My mirror stares at me while I look at myself and all that surrounds.
I particularly like that last sentence which has a very satisfying feel (all those stares!) --and, of course, the items listed are all done with grace and economy.
