Addiction

Addiction
By Jan Beaumont 

I really love my Netflix
I enjoy my Lightbox too
Prime Video's a goodie
and I don't know what I'd do
without my TVondemand 
ThreeNow is great as well
and just to top it off
I'm watching Neon for a spell. 
For lockdown gave permission
to just turn into a slouch 
but now I fear the time has come
to get up from the couch
Go out and feel the sunshine
and meet up with lovely friends
but the love affair with my TV
is one that never ends
There's Blacklist, Vikings, and there's Bosch 
and my legs turn to jelly
when I am watching Luther 
and see Idris on the telly
I think I've an addiction 
and my eyes are turning square
so someone please remind me
there's a whole big world out there!
