Cuckoo
(This is a fictional poem)
When my friend watches TV and movies, he believes that everything is real.
He was eventually committed and now he's taking pills.
When he watched ET, he really believed that aliens had landed.
He watched reruns of Gilligan's Island and he thought they were really stranded.
After watching Star Wars, he got mad because it didn't work when he tried to use
the force.
His wife had had all she could take so she got a divorce.
After watching Early Edition, he told his paperboy that he wanted his newspapers
to start arriving a day early.
The paperboy told him that he needed help because he was squirrely.
When he met Brandon Routh, he told him that he wouldn't tell people that his
secret identity is Clark Kent.
Routh called a mental institution and that's where my friend went.
I wonder if he'll ever realize that the stuff in TV shows is fake.
He may but there's no telling how long or how much medication it will take.
