Knife of ICE
Bare Naked
 It leaves no
 Fingerprints
       Kills
       With
       ALIBI

Believe whatever is shown on television
For some inexplicable reason  Reason !!
Glitzy images news views current affairs 
song dance entertainment and of course 
Advertisement  Can we live without them
Surf channels switch as many as you can 
In them a commonality- They are All Sold
Sponsored communication- Commercials
          Can not afford to miss a word 
          Believe in all that is sponsored 
          You got it right- Advertisement 
  Give me your time Give me your money
  But Most important- Give me your brain 
Promise is- you will be thoroughly entertained
