Poem
On such an important day when daylight wakes up in the morning with a blank screen looking in my face and the carriage is dragging the midday race, and colorful flags flying high in the sky while the message hope lingers on the seat of wisdom muttering a faint monologue through its hot breath. I held on to my cup of tea and looked all around for some company, but all the TV networks have gone astray with live location shots lingering at the back, where have the entire journalist crew gone, they have been waiting there before dawn, whispering a message in my ears that was very clear. The cinematographer is standing tall, with scripts and sketches of the brawl and significant shots and direction written on the bottom of the shoe entrance and exit, the timing and the clue, the location and the news, everything was on time for the evening news. I could not read one word on the shoe and could not understand it on the news because it was coded with caterpillar sauce, while pound shilling and pence danced the shimmy, Euro dollars and cents are making a big investment. I watched the Japanese yen running in the den and Chinese Renminbi shouting for glory. The TV screen is hanging all around and the blank screen erected on the wall is groaning in the background and the soldiers parading in the back are having fun. An old man with a beard and hoody covering his ears suddenly appears on the screen held a lantern. The light illuminated. And the old man suddenly faded away it is the miracle in the dream. You scream and you shout everyday about privacy invasion, but it is the TV that causes you to receive numerous victories, we are not going back to the old age when cats used to scale the tree to hide from dogs and rats use to dash around the corner at the sight of a cat. Now cats and dogs can live together, and cats don’t eat rats anymore for supper. I have much more to offer that you cannot see, the gate is open come around and meet me; a cake is hidden at the bottom of the well and the pirate dish with a symbolic message carves out on top, is waiting patiently. And as for that old pair of shoes you can stitch the message on the side in a word or two and hope that your dream will come true. I want a brand-new TV set before I place the bet.
