syntax errors while compiling her own reflection on borrowed hardware

screen hums / she hums back.
CRT phosphor catching the outline
before she fully appears.
her = render(entity="woman", mode="partial")
laptop.run(prompt="dream of green topologies")

pixels shiver at the handshake:
hand → keyboard → code → image → gaze.
background threads leak into foreground,
turning her profile into
compressed algorithms of recognition.
if (frame.is_corrupted()):
frame.save("self_v2_final_FINAL.png")

the machine waits,
half in computation, half in belief.
