tv steals my energy
tv watching wears me out
steals my energy
eliminates my day
robs me of myself
I sit mesmerized hour after hour
as if I am a puppet without a hand
after a bit I feel one with my recliner
reluctant to live a real life
my tv people are my gods
sometimes I move to the couch
where the droning puts me instantly to sleep
reinforcing my depression
