Media Malstrom
Mar 20, 2022
Vonnegut would be ashamed of me
If he knew how much I watched TV
Sometimes I go into a Netflix craze
Go to work blurry eyed for days
My cable plan has choices sublime
Hulu, HBO Max, Netflix, Apple, and Prime
And YouTube and TikTok and instagram too
Are there to distract me when I’m feeling blue
But sometimes I fall into a media trap
Lose track of reality feel like a sap
Live in a world of imagination
Wake up in the morning full of frustration
Act like I’m really doing fine
Longing all the while to go online
Vonnegut warned me not to just say no
But I’m in too deep to ever let go!
