I Dream of Genie, but in reality, I'm the Lone Ranger.
Luckily, I was Saved By The Bell.
Who's The Boss of this Empty Nest?
I'd take a Star Trek to THOSE Green Acres,
but I'd probably get Lost somewhere between
Sesame Street and Melrose Place.
Maybe I should cast a Dragnet.....
I'd probably wind up with a snare
full of Desperate Housewives and Golden Girls.
There is no Law and order in THIS Love Connection!
Instead, I'm Thirty- Something and
My Wheel of Fortune is in Jeopardy!
Its Mission Impossible when you're
The Young and the Restless.......
Till one day you wake up in a Full House,
Married With Children,
and you decide to have A Current Affair......
which was a mistake because Mob Wives
only like Trading Spouses
If The Price is Right.
So finally you find yourself stuck,
Moonlighting at the General Hospital,
with a 10,000 Dollar Pyramid a week cocaine habit
(because Whose Line Is It Anyways)
Just to be Keeping Up With The Kardashians.......
realizing that the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous
are the illusion only seen by the Survivor
of the Real World.

this is a one-of-a-kind poem, surely :)
i like how u've sewn together a string of tv shows (seen only a few of them, though) to comment on the reality faced by ourselves. do the shows serve as a metaphor for our constant distractions from our actual lives as well?? i would very much like to know :p
brilliant work!! best wishes :)
The entire piece
is a metaphor, really. A satire.
Heres my philosophy: Some people spend so much time in front of the television, they pass up lifes finest treasures, and replace them with TV. We have become spectators and have morphed into a once- capable animal...into a pair of eyes staring at a screen. I named it TV Dinner, because I hope my Readers Digest? dig?
Oh I dig
too funny, tv makes dull minds.
art, music, friends, reading ,writing
and OUTDOORS!

Poems like this are always enjoyable. And still able to bring an aspect of serious and show the daily struggle of some human beings. Inspiring.
Can never think of what to say. Contradiction Incarnate.
A lonely contradiction. Contrasola
33 show names
on a list. I tried to think of the ones that could be useful, but i guess i just wound up with this. I had fun writing this because the oucome was determined by the direction the titles led me in. Id like to think I was at the wheel the whole time, but I dont think I really was
Ha Awesome!
Made me chuckle, remembering all those shows of yesteryears. Very good & Very funny.
Thanks for the review, glad you got a kick out of it man!
It was fun to piece together
