My Television Is Now In the Trash

My television is now in the trash because it became to much , the constant sound of selfishness and lack of human touch . That one eyed monster is finally gone and good riddance too all it’s lies. As I slammed that lid and I’m glad I did I could only feel despise. Goodbye too your incessant drone , And good bye to the disinformation , goodbye too that hypnotic‘I have too buy, I’m now enjoying conversation . Your time was had and you took to much ‘of that I am completely sure , But I thank the lessons you’ve taught me , too Have you around no more !

The bell sound like a lovely idea, or in your case “reality”.

Hurray for you! Got rid of mine in the 1970's and (obviously) don't miss it one lick! Cheers, Gershon

Nice one Simon. Man after my own heart although I haven't quite got the courage to bin it. Totally endorse the comment about rekindling conversation. Thoroughly enjoyable and well penned piece. Best wishes..Ron

Cheers, Simon! As an older kid on the block, I see people glued to PCs, IPhones and tablets.. Still, if not more, than TV. TV is boring and costly. A brave soil you are,too speak with your fellow beings, Netflix! Nonsense.More lies shown as truth. Love your poem and last sentence to Richard. Panagiota

Lol , somethings you never miss if you’ve never had them , the one eyed monster has been gone for years now and in its place is music, conversation and the sound of the bells I obsessively place in the tees when I find them dormant in thrift stores etc .
