Seer

It was six in the morning, in E-ville Indiana when Shelly Shelton woke up to her favorite song on her best clock radio.  She got up and picked out her first-rate outfit, which she slipped into with amazing ease.  Then she polished her shining whtie teeth and brushed her beautiful blonde hair.  She looked in the mirror and said to her very vain self, I am beautiful.

Then abruptly, her fingernails started to grow at an alarming rate.  They were growing so fast that they started curling.  What was happening??  While her nails were getting longer and dirtier by the second she was developing an odor that was coming from her... warts?  Warts were spreading from her face to the rest of her body.  How was this happening?  By now she was screaming, but noone came.  Her hair was turning into greasy, gray dreadlocks.  She realized suddenly that her feet had grown to be twice as long as her arms.  Everything around her turned black.  Except for the mirror.  And a voice boomed, THIS IS WHAT I SEE...

And for the first time she saw herself for what she truly was.
