To see, to accept, to believe.

To see, to accept, to believe.

A Poem by Jon Roggie

All the time you will spend.
Thirty minutes before your show.

Wait,
  I forgot about commercials.

Down to about eighteen.

Base of most of your decisions.
Channel of choice,
  takes over your thoughts.

Like a child,
  distracted by the rays from the prism.

~ so true... so true... i grew so sick of watching movies with a million commercial breaks in between...that i started downloading torrents...it's so much better that way...i actually watch movies now... but i still have to deal with ads on news channels... even research shows that all of this leads to people having a shorter attention span... excellent work, monsieur jon...

Ah yes, many act as if the world IS a sound-bite. I like that you notice, and that you keep it short for those with the affliction. I hope they take the time to read it.
