[ WP ] Describe an object within five feet of you in as much detail as possible .

The $ 25 Barnes & Noble gift card sat beside me, brand new with the falling afternoon sun glinting off it. Though it is just a flimsy card the possibilities within it are endless. I could read the thoughts of a poet who has been dead for two thousands years or more, I could learn every sordid detail about the life of a politician, a general, or an athlete. I could even be provided a glimpse into the unique world that has been created inside another's mind. Or, it could sit there and gather dust while my mind does the same, excuse me while I run out to get a book.
