Losing the Remote Control, March 3, 2017 Cassidy's Poetry

I have lost sight of you once again. 
Frustrated, I search every nook, every corner, every crevice that you have been known to hide. 
I call for you, but my efforts are to no avail. 
Without you I am a creature without choice, 
A wretch with no power to make change. 
So I will wallow in the consequences of my absent minded nature, for i have forgotten where I left you. 
It seems as though i am forced to reckon with watching this program on ABC family until i shrivel and choke, 
 and return to the soil.

I would change the channel--- hunker down on the couch and defy the withdrawal until I was in control once again
