Synthetic dolls, Microchip heroes Digital villains Dead eyes watching ~ Sports stars, Flex steroid muscles Mouth obligatory mumblings Dead eyes watching ~ Art defined by Ad men Acting unwanted, Just say the words Dead eyes watching ~ Cartoon children Vacuumed imagination Finger the game pad Dead eyes watching ~ Massacre in Orlando Carnage in Paris Quake in China Dead eyes watching * * George set the date too early at 1984, or did he? |

Yep, I have to agree, Cari, that George set the date too early . . . As for your poem, I do not watch television, am not hooked up to any provider, never turn it on. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Every media saturates and conditions us, does it not? De-sensitizes us birthing indifference. We're a sight. I like your thoughts. Well expressed as always Cari. More feelings and fewer words please |

i agree, we need television, but we are always victims of our needings if we don't care and don't think by ourselves, there is some sadness and delusion in your words i guess yann |
