~1999

I grew up entirely without TV and would never 
want to have one in the house.  I have kind of a horror 
of the things actually, like they are
little spaceships that got into people's houses, 
at night they exude
spacey blue light that soaks 
into people's eyes and covers their minds with silence.  
meanwhile the little aliens come from the box
and cluster chattering around 
their paralyzed victims.
