A poem about watching TV

[kaosmark2]

Life.

Not my life

But a fake life, seen through the lens of a screen

Problems are always hilarious

Unless they're your own.

Fiction can feel more real than life.

Empty, shallow, yet more kisses and warmth than my lonely home.

I would weep of jealousy

Not for the lie of it

But the desire it were more true.

Would but I lived in a sitcom

My problems gone 20 minutes after appearing.

Generic.

Plastic.

Made up.

More real than I.

 

 

Mocking poetrychatbore, not that this really needed to be spoilered

[kaosmark2]

why?

Because there could be just one thread of terrible poetry about tv.

TBF not all his threads have been about TV

[MrZigster]

I remember when youthful angsty poetry was kept in the bedroom.

[feral chile]

I liked it.

I like Poetrybore. At least they're doing something a bit different on here.

[t8yman]

I like the way he/she has blatantly ignored Neils request that he/she keeps their poetry all one place. and continues to post poetry about shit that nobody watches.

[poetrychatbore]

deep

[t8yman]

much much deeper than the wright stuff, emmerdale or CBB.

 

There once was a poetrychatbore

who's poems were impossible to ignore

they filled up the forum

showing little decorum

simple etiquette rules were a chore

Nah, screw them. They are just too lazy to create their own blog/twitter account, I'd be far more impressed if they were actually engaged in a conversation with others using poetry rather than just dumping it on here to be read by others.
