Operation Freedom-No Oscar Nomination

OPERATION FREEDOM-NO OSCAR NOMINATION

Sex is best

Coach potatoes rest

TV demands 

Our attention best.


Next I guess

The threat of 

War.

Reality TV 

Even the whore


A boar.

The roar 

of the war 

Our whore war boar? 


Yes.


I’m numb

Somewhat dumb


Bi-sexual encounters

On tropical islands

Of whom will marry 

Mr. Billion Trillion carpenter

have let me, well…

Wanting 

More!



This shock and awe

Reality TV

A critical disappointment for me.



Sorry no Oscar nomination shall there be.

Not from me

You shall see. 

Hurry now 

Try some more

Trying in vain

To entertain me.

War and sex are certainly big draws for TV viewers, Catherine. As for reality TV, most of these shows bore me as well. "Survivor" and "American Idol" are exceptions. As for the others, it's mystifying to me why they are so popular. Being forced to watch them would be one of the worst types of torture I can imagine. VERY well written (and obviously thought provoking)!
