Tv Tremors

Star strung
like Bette Davis Sundays
marathon watching 
and sitting in tears
Wrestling emotions
which calm and confuse us
Confound us and move us
beyond golden years
Broken
like black and white vision
fuzzy and stationed
with grey rabbit ears
Lost in commotion
which break and betray us
which bullet gun lays us
compounding our fears.

THIS IS EXCELLENT! A real poem! Very nice writing Tatyana your choice of words is perfect ... I love the alliteration and the rhythm and the occasional rhyme. I keep reading and re-reading this one.
