Walking away from watching TV,
I realize what a waist of time it is.

A waste of eyesight that steals abilities to think.
That becomes drug to manipulate masses
as false news is believed and commercials insult.

Moments get throw away into a box that
plays over and over the same jargon so brain gets numbed.

One misspend glance kidnaps beginning process to brainwashing.
To convince the buying of items
that can never satisfy the need for happiness.

TV's truly a tool used to disable
the common man. A thing in the wrong hands that
has become something the human race needs not.

Watching the box has potential but has been lost to
the wealthy that care nothing for humanity.

Excuses to unwind plagues urging use,
so before one knows it they are victim.

I’ve become a victim... A casualty of the times for a while now but  through determination my independence I declare
to rid self of disease.

*Time go outside and see natures screen of beauty.
We all deserve freedom.

Let's take back our power and use out time wisely.
Just a thought when I realized how much time I waisted watching the TV yesterday. I understand why they call it an idiot box.
I am part of the community to rid the world of senseless tv and reestablish
a new modality where TV serves rather than hinders the spirit.
