Television's blare
drowning out today.
Past events create
memory lanes while
future's show static...
feeling like
my favorite show
might have been
preempted by
special reports
anchored by Al Gore...
its no longer Eco-friendly;
this toxic soup
227 Stoops...dupe
X files keep
Prophesying aliens
on the horizon...
foreign life forms
being born that the
common man would never spawn...
I felt drawn to
change my routine
and clean.
opened window drapes
to peep my life's scene
The analogy was crazy...
it framed 'Queen'…
who watched mental images
flash animal channels;
their habitat,
their eating habits,
their mating rituals,
and life expectancy,
feeling superior knowledge
created a supreme me
somehow relying now on instincts...
impetus breakthrough - think!
Now I,
ignore sensationalistic news,
or Black Entertainment Channels featuring how to bust a groove.
OH WOW......... This was not what I was expecting when I first started reading this. It's funny cuz I am not a TV person myself with a few exceptions, for the most part I know it's gonna rain by the clouds in the sky, because I too depend on my reality, what's in my fac to lead the way......... but that's just me, LOL... this was very very good =]
I'm certainly in tune with this. I feel you on the change in choice. I'm not a TV watcher myself. An occasional movie here and there to aid in the rare need to combat real boredom. Never too late to make a change.
yo & i thought the misses & i always have these deep convo about the mindless tv we digest on TV... amazingly due to this poem we're not the only ones...LMAO!
