Pick Up Your T.V.

pick up your t.v.
it's blasting you with x-rays
mirror images of reality
filmed in a backroom factory

the crowds raged
a naked teen raved
a priest prayed
and they all said,
"it's only entertaining"

so pick up your t.v.
it's blasting you with x-rays
mirror images of yesterday
filmed in a living room

the team won
a bomb blasted
another man lambasted
and they all said,
"it's only entertaining"

so pick up your t.v.
it's blasting you with x-rays
mirror image wanna-bes
filmed from a circus stage

the room exploded
a quiet cry sounded
another day wasted
and they all said,
"it's only entertaining"

only entertaining.

Lord of Winterfell

i just laughed
given that i surmised
what they obviously missed
that there were always the books

although they were never hidden
in a nook
if only they had
given a look

literally,
if they were just
a little more
literate
it would have always seemed
deliberate

the lord of winterfell's
"untimely" demise
was not a desperate ploy
nor a way to play
an audience of drooling
mindless zombies
it was always right
even if,
what the heck,

he was cut from the neck.
