Savage Slaying

He was adorable since when he came
Spotless, faultless - nothing to blame

Became part of the family in a heartbeat
Was always in the house to greet

He was colorfully pleasing, always entertaining
Never a dull moment - poor thing

Sometimes fueled a quarrel between spouse
as he became the center of the house

Felt like the best thing ever to happen
especially to men, than to women

Such was Life in all its splendor.
I tried my best - but could only be so tender

Until I took the remote and shut off -
the passionate vast plasma!

-Padma


Thought for the day : I find television to be very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go in the other room and read a book. ~Groucho Marx
